We are conducting an anonymous survey to better understand the lived experiences of people affected by OCD. Our aim is to learn about the challenges people face so that future support in this area can be better informed.

Your answers will help us understand what matters most to people with OCD. There are no right or wrong answers, and you can share as much or as little as feels comfortable. Thank you for taking the time to contribute.

📢 Calling people with lived experience of OCD, carers, and healthcare professionals working with OCD!

Researchers at the Karolinska Institutet are now collecting data for the OCDCORE project, which wants to hear from YOU what YOU think should be measured in clinical studies of OCD. The aim is to find a broad consensus on what a core outcome set for OCD should include.

Please complete the survey below, which should only take 5-10 minutes, and share this widely!

🚨Important note: This is an early experimental version. It is not medical advice, not a replacement for therapy, and should not be used in an emergency. Please only use it if you feel comfortable, and continue with your usual support or treatment. We will not have access to your private conversation with the AI; the only information we receive is the feedback you choose to share with us afterwards.
