Hey guys.
I'm writing an article about OCD and how the media handles it. My sister has OCD and it is a big strain on my family and that is why I have decided to write an article about it. This is very important to me and that is why I would like to get more insight and information on this.

I think we'd all appreciate it if you told us where this article would be printed.
I'm sorry your family reacts feels such strain over your sister. Perhaps therapy would help them?

Hello,
seems fair enough. This is a feature article for my online journalism class. I attend Ryerson University. This will not be published on any specific newspaper but it will be available online and for that reason those who do not feel comfortable exposing their name can definitely be known as anonymous or any other name.
So if anyone is still interested in talking to me, please let me know.
Thank you
Lori

Have you read The Boy Who Couldn't Stop Washing by Rapoport? I'm reading it now -- very interesting if you haven't seen it.

Good luck on your article.

lolka - It seems to me that you could get the OCD information you need much more readily and in a more precise easy to understand layout by referring to research that's been done about it that you can find online instead of our responses. There's no shortage of online research results on the subject. :)

I think I'd feel a bit like a lab rat by taking part in your research as you presented it.
