This podcast dives into the complexities of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), exploring its symptoms, behaviors, and the profound impact it has on individuals' lives. Michael Stratton and Morgan Bowen discuss the distinction between obsessions—intrusive thoughts that can feel uncontrollable—and compulsions, the repetitive behaviors that people engage in to alleviate anxiety. They emphasize that while many people experience obsessive thinking, it becomes a disorder when it significantly interferes with daily functioning and well-being. The conversation also touches upon the misconceptions surrounding OCD in popular culture and the importance of seeking help when these behaviors become overwhelming. Throughout the discussion, the hosts aim to bring light to the often-misunderstood aspects of OCD, highlighting both its challenges and the pathways to effective treatment.______________________Mike and Morgan welcome questions and comments Email: A PsychoDelicous ConversationRelated Podcast: Mike & Morgan on Behind the ConnectionMike Stratton's A Groove SupremeSpotify: Mike's Podcast, The Little Green Book
