I was wondering which party backs mental health funding etc. in the US moreso. Any help?

This is extremely common for anxiety sufferers. Over the four years I've been perusing these OCD threads I've heard thousands of violent obsessive thought threads. I have not once however heard of a true OCD or UST (unwanted scary thought or obsessions only sufferer) ever acting on anything. The dif...

I've lived in complete paranoia for almost five years straight. It's an absolute nightmare of an existence. One thing that I can pass on to others however, is to not be weak like I have and succumb to this burden. Please work on yourself.
