OCD in Society: Making Sense of a Hidden Illness
The event “OCD in Society: Making Sense of a Hidden Illness” aimed to bring together people who suffer from OCD – including OCD advocates, charities, and artists – with social scientists to think about the different ways OCD is understood in society. In order to know how to take social action when raising awareness about the disorder, one needs an understanding of how different meanings of the disorder are created, circulated and regulated in society. Linguistics PhD student Elvis therefore organized this event with support from the Centre for Mind in Society to promote research about OCD that is not only done for, but also with and by the OCD community.
