11 May 2022
In this episode, I meet with Collin Strajack, otherwise known as Modern Day Overthinker. We talk about... - examples of intrusive thoughts including those that are harm and sexual in nature - how the anxiety/ocd cycle applies directly to these examples and how it can snowball out of control over time - how OCD/anxiety can morph into different themes/content - how comorbidities like substance use and depression have complicated his recovery/where he's at now - the importance of wanting to do therapy for yourself and why it's necessary to challenge yourself to do the hard stuff To see more from Collin, check out these links: www.moderndayoverthinker.com https://linktr.ee/cstrajack For OCD treatment, check out NOCD - head to www.treatmyocd.com and schedule your free 15 minute phone call to get connected with a licensed therapist who specializes in Exposure and Response Prevention.
