Comment by alizachana on December 23, 2011 at 7:52am I've started a group for those of us who have diabetes and also have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, a sub-group of the anxiety disorders. I have severe generalized anxiety as well as fairly severe OCD, so if you have both and are interested in joining, the link to the group is : http://www.tudiabetes.org/group/diabetics-with-obsessive-compulsive... .
