Ep. 6 - OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

Candice Conroy, licensed mental health counselor, sits down with Ashley as they break down the myths of OCD. Candice shares common scenarios that plague people with OCD and how to overcome them in order to better one's mental health, relationships, and to get back all the time that's lost to symptoms of OCD. Candice and Ashley discuss how to not enable a family member or friend with OCD as well as the specific treatment and steps one might expect if they seek treatment. Candice shares about the difference between OCD and anxiety and how treating OCD must be approached differently than general anxiety. The two talk about when to seek treatment, the various types of OCD, the impact stress can have on symptoms coming back, and what help can look like. Ready to take action on your own self-growth?
