During my 14's volleyball season, I had a great time with my teammates and continued to develop as a player and a person. However, the season led me to develop OCD tendencies from the stress that I would face during the tournaments,

My OCD had settled over the summer, but once the school year started it began to spike again and continued throughout the school year.

The OCD symptoms continued to develop until my 11th grade volleyball season where it was at its worst. I wasn't able to complete miscellaneous tasks and everything felt like a struggle, so I finally asked for help and started seeing a therapist.

I started seeing my therapist consistently and began battling my OCD. Through all the difficult times, many tears and breakdowns I was starting to see remission in my symptoms and started to feel comfortable within myself and how I operate within society.
