The origins of Impulse
A Short Story of OCD
Jamal Asskoumi, the founder of Impulse, is a former OCD sufferer just like many of you are today. As with many OCD beginnings, Jamal, had a thought, then another, then a thought about that thought and so on and so forth, until he was completely overcome by thoughts. What made matters worse, he could not find an answer, no matter how many times he played these thoughts over in his mind or looked for certainty, Jamal could not find a definitive answer. This made him anxious. And the only solution he found to momentarily squash the anxiety, was to perform compulsions and rituals.
How Impulse was
formed
He spent thousands on therapy, receiving the advice and techniques that he needed to truly understand and overcome his OCD.
Finally reaching a stage where he could manage his OCD without therapy, he began to think of the millions of people in the same position as him, without the means to get the help they truly needed. This is where the idea of Impulse was formed.
Jamal wanted to create something for OCD sufferers. To give our community a place where they could get the help and support they needed.

He got in touch with a number of psychiatrists, psychologists and doctors, to find the best way of creating an online course of OCD treatment. After years of research, development and testing (and putting together a crack team of awesome people), Impulse was born.
