Whether you have Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), think you might have OCD, or love someone with OCD, this episode is for you. OCD is an incredibly misunderstood disorder, often used as the punch line of jokes or as a way to define "quirks" or personality traits. But it's important to understand OCD for what it is, both so that we can understand what may be going on in our own brains and so that we can extend understanding to those we love who may be suffering from this disorder. That's why I'm breaking the OCD cycle down to the very basics.Today we'll be covering:How I got my OCD diagnosisWhat the four steps to the OCD cycle are and how they operate within different themes, including intrusive thoughts, anxiety, compulsions and a temporary reduction in anxietyHow you don't have to have OCD to relate to what an OCD sufferer goes throughThe two key differentiators of OCD: doubt and an intolerance of uncertaintyHow to recover from OCDHope for those with OCDFor more information, consider checking out this blog post: https://www.abbietabbilos.com/post/what-is-ocd Connect with me:Website: https://www.abbietabbilos.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/abstabbs/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@abstabbsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/tothemoonandbacknomatterwhatYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AbbieTabbilosLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abbie-tabbilos-55ab9422aDownload my free 3-step guide, "How to Change Your Relationship With Your Thoughts": https://www.abbietabbilos.com/newsletter-free-resource-landing-pageHeadshot photo credit: Mark Daeson Tabbilos from Your Filipino Photographer.
