If I allow myself to self-soothe and not feel the fear- ultimately, somebody with obsessive-compulsive disorder or hypochondria? So that's a lot of what I do with my guys with OCD or something like that.
Have you ever found yourself constantly worried about your health, convinced that every minor symptom is a sign of something serious? Or perhaps you can't shake off certain repetitive thoughts and actions? In this episode of 'Power of the Mind', Gregory Struve and Elicia Morigeau dive deep into the world of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and hypochondria.
Struve, who helms Granite Mountain Behavioral Healthcare, brings his wealth of experience to the table, shedding light on how these conditions intertwine and manifest in everyday life. From the endless cycle of doctor visits to the anxiety of social situations, they cover it all. You'll get to hear about the importance of self-soothing techniques and the concept of extinction in managing these disorders. They also touch on some unusual but fascinating aspects, like fears related to pets.
If you or someone close to you grapples with these challenges, this episode offers practical advice and a sense of understanding that could be a game-changer. Tune in for an engaging and informative discussion that might just help you make sense of these complex conditions.
