Filmmaker Stella Gutierrez, 15, opens up about her struggle with OCD in this aubiographical short documentary. She shares how she seeks support from others who also suffer from trichotillomania (pulling of the hair) and dermatillomania (picking of the skin), the difficulty of talking about OCD in a society that stigmatizes mental illness, and how she manages her compulsive behaviors in her day-to-day life.
