Speaking out about OCD?

Hi, I've been someone that has struggled with OCD for the past 8 years of my life. Having battled such a misunderstood disease I want to speak out about it, and help people become aware that its not something that defines someone as a freak, its something that can really overtake someones life. Does anybody have any ideas where I could get started? Like on a talk show or something and how I would sign up? Only serious answers please. Thank you so much.
