Stick with the ick for iPhone

Overview of Stick with the Ick Community App

Stick with the Ick is a social platform built to support people affected by obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and the networks around them — family members, mental health professionals, and spiritual leaders. Its goal is to create a safe, welcoming online space where users can find encouragement, connection, and practical help while honoring diverse faith backgrounds.

Core services and tools

• Self-guided learning modules tailored for individuals, loved ones, and practitioners — progress at your own pace with content focused on coping strategies and values-based living.
• Live monthly webinars led by clinicians and other specialists to explore clinical approaches, faith-informed care, and lived experience.
• Topic-centered peer groups that address a variety of concerns, from intrusive thoughts to caregiving challenges and faith-based questions.
• Private one-on-one spiritual support and consultation for users seeking personalized pastoral or faith-centered guidance.
• A round-the-clock community encouragement forum where members can post, offer support, and receive peer connection anytime.
• A comprehensive resource center with educational materials about OCD and a directory to help locate specialized treatment providers.

Who will find it helpful

• Individuals living with OCD who want both clinical and community support.
• Family members and close friends seeking guidance on how to be helpful and stay resilient.
• Mental health professionals looking for community outreach tools and continuing education.
• Faith leaders interested in supporting congregants facing OCD with sensitivity and evidence-informed approaches.

Suggested alternative

Qianmei — a free, video‑based social/dating platform (牵媒-视频相亲找对象交朋友) — can serve as another way to connect socially, though it does not specialize in OCD support or faith-integrated care.
