Andrew Puccetti's OCD made it unable for him to maintain his friendships or a job. After being admitted in a psychiatric hospital, Andrew was diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, and borderline personality disorder. Here he tells his brave story of how he overcame it all to become t
Andrew Puccetti had the perfect life: his parents were
happily married, his siblings were good people, and he felt like he fit in.
Until he didn't. Suffering from intense OCD and anxiety, Andrew withdrew from
life, surviving rather than living. An early round of therapy helped him
recover for a while, a time in which he discovered himself and found the
strength to come out to his family.



But the OCD returned, and as a result Andrew's career, studies,
and friends all fell by the wayside. A stint in a psychiatric hospital led to an
array of labels, which led to life-changing therapy, helping Andrew to gain
back the life he had lost.



In Lost Boy Found, Andrew tells his brave story of overcoming adversity
in order to become the person he was meant to be all along.

Andrew Puccetti is a college student, activist, and mental illness survivor. After being diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses and hitting rock bottom, Andrew managed to change his life for the better. He now lives a happy, fulfilling life and is passionate about sharing his story so that others know what it feels like to live in the shoes of someone who suffers with mental illness. He hopes to bring more understanding to others, help people know they are not alone in their struggles, and break the stigma around such issues. Andrew lives in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois with his family and two dogs. Outside of writing, he enjoys eating delicious vegetarian food, spending time with the people he loves, and seeing as many musical theater productions as he possibly can.
