Coming Clean: Living with OCD, written by Hayley Leitch with Veronica Clark, has been featured in a Daily Express article in which Hayley talks about living with and…

…overcoming OCD. Hayley says: “You have to be strong inside. It’s such a hurdle. It was very much baby steps. There was one day when I just got so sick of this illness controlling me. I stopped washing my hands. Instead of 60 times I did it 59.

“It was a lightbulb moment. My kids were alive. I thought, ‘Oh my god, they’re going to be fine’.”

Hayley says of the book, “I want there to be more awareness of it. When that happened to me in hospital there wasn’t any investigation or anyone saying, ‘This isn’t normal traits of a mum who has just given birth.’ My illness carried on after that.”
