Motorcycling and An Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD)

BuckBuck#1 - An old Newbie, or a Newbie that is old.

My Personal Theme Song:Stand By Me...play it while you read on.

OCPD - Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder is little talked about. To get an appreciation I have provided an insight to my own family background and my years of coming to terms with a condition that at times was a huge struggle.

I count myself to be very lucky, retiring early - medically. I've been able to relax easier now, but still have my moments. With the assistance of good professional clinical management of my condition and with my family, I have been able to apply cognitive behaviour techniques and deal with issues and challenges a lot better.

Learning to ride a motorcycle, a rewarding challenge, was more than therapeutic - riding helps me immensely.

I hope you enjoy reading this blogg and that it provides an insight to how I learnt to ride - and continue to learn.

    Tragically he was killed six months later.
