About a month ago, I discovered an anxiety coach who specializes in the treatment of OCD. The long and short of it is, I suffer from OCD. Before meeting this therapist, I had so many misconceptions about OCD. I thought it was germs and handwashing and checking the stove. Turns out it can look very different than that. For me, OCD is perfectionism and arbitrary “rules” and mental checklists and checking and re-checking and always always a feeling of failure and overwhelm.
