Have you ever heard of OCD? Jennifer Parlee is living with it, find out more here.

Jennifer Parlee was in grade 9 or 10 when she started having consuming thoughts and developed repetitive behaviour.

She didn’t talk about it with anybody, including her parents.

But her anxiety around her thoughts became so problematic, Jennifer realized she needed to tell somebody, and get help.






Jennifer’s story is quite remarkable – and she does a great job of describing what it is like to live with her mental illness.

Sadly, there are many other children and teens out there who still need the care she received. That’s why your support is so critical. Become an IWK Superstar and let them know you are here for them.

Also, Jennifer has written a blog about her experiences, you can read it at the following link:
