We're inspired by the resilience and artistic vision of Charlotte Johnson Wahl, an OCD sufferer and Maudsley Hospital resident in the 1970s. This OCD Awareness Week we have a new addition to the Museum’s collections - Johnson Wahl's vibrant painting 'Morning Group'.

It's OCD Awareness Week!

#OCDweek is a worldwide event that serves to dispel myths about obsessive compulsive disorder, break the stigma around mental illness, and provide education about the disorder and how to support those affected.

Sometimes there are no words. Olivia Gillow’s painting ‘Cradle Soap’, on display at Bethlem Museum of the Mind, has helped visitors to understand OCD in a way that words could not have done.

It's OCD Awareness Week 💜

OCD isn't about being organized - it's intrusive thoughts and compulsions that can take over your life.

Good news: effective treatment exists and recovery is possible.
