You know, you can feel like I'm a very rational person. If it were easy to understand, it probably wouldn't be OCD, right?
Picture this: a mother determined to help her son break free from the grip of severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods welcomes Janet Singer and Seth Gillihan, co-authors of a book on OCD recovery, to share their heartfelt story and expert advice. Janet recounts the emotional rollercoaster of supporting her son through his darkest times, shedding light on the often misunderstood world of OCD.
Seth, a clinical psychologist, dives into the nuts and bolts of exposure and response prevention therapy, a key method for treating OCD. They both emphasize the critical role of family involvement in the recovery process and offer practical coping strategies for those living with OCD. Janet's candid reflections and Seth's professional insights create a powerful narrative that underscores the importance of hope, resilience, and proper treatment.
This episode is essential listening for anyone affected by OCD, providing both a personal account and expert guidance on navigating this challenging disorder.
