Research for an IA project

Hello! I am an IB student who is taking Design and Technology at standard level in year 12 (grade 11). I'm currently researching ideas for my IA (internal assessment) project and one of them is designing a product that can help those suffering from OCD or other anxiety disorders.
I personally struggle with symptoms of OCD regularly, however I would really like some input from other people, regarding issues that are experienced on a day to day basis.
If it doesn't take up too much time, it would be great to hear how intrusive thoughts are managed and how the anxiety is dealt with. It would also be great to receive some information on what it's like to have OCD/an anxiety disorder generally.
Thank you!
