Hello! Welcome to My Bubble. Most of you have probably heard the expression "their own little bubble" in some variation. This blog is a reflection of mine. Just one girl's ideas, finds, responses to news stories and popular trends, recipes, life, thoughts, and opinions.

The IOCDF:

The link below is for the International O.C.D. Foundation. Founded in 1986 with a goal to help people with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, as well as their families. They are a non-profit organization and not only are they designed to help those with O.C.D. but also related disorders.

That is why I am writing about them, they are set up to help those with Asperger's Disorder and Autism, Body Dysmorphic Disorder, Psychotic Disorders/Schizophrenia, as well as Tourette Syndrome. This is an organization truly helping many!

Recently they held their 18th annual conference that per the website, "Gives people with OCD, their families, researchers and treatment providers the chance to share their personal experiences and learn beside one another during more than 100 presentations."
They also address the topic of Behavior Therapy Training, (

Jim’s not a hard worker. I’ll spend all day on a project, and he’ll do it in half an hour.
