The Piercing Thought "OCD"

from The Supervised Mind

Theme: A story-driven exploration of OCD — from the first intrusive thought to the relentless rituals that follow, and ultimately, the path toward understanding and healing. Episode Summary: In The Piercing Thought, Dr. Faisal Rafiq unravels the hidden world of obsessive-compulsive disorder through the lens of a fictional patient, “Eli.” Listeners will follow Eli’s descent into cycles of fear and ritual, how one thought hijacked his peace, and the clinical framework that explains this experience. The episode explores common misconceptions, evidence-based treatments, and how modern psychiatry helps patients separate the thought from the thinker.
