Episode Synopsis

In today’s episode, we’re taking a no-nonsense (ok maybe a little nonsense, Michelle is still your host here) dive into OCD, or Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder; because it’s time to stop pretending it’s just about being “super tidy” or “needing things in perfect order.” Spoiler alert: it’s way more complex than that, and we’re here to get real about it. First up, we’ll break down the DSM criteria, which is the official checklist for diagnosing OCD. It's kind of like a treasure map...except instead of hidden gold, it’s a bunch of mental health terms that make you feel like you need a nap. We’re talking about a serious, often misunderstood disorder, and we’re going to break it all down for you. So buckle up, because, like an onion, OCD’s got layers, and we’re peeling them back- no fluff, just facts.Join us on the O'Neil Counseling app here: ⁠https://www.oneilcounseling.com/app-landing-page
