Скачать или смотреть Inside OCD: What It Really Feels Like and What Help Looks Like with Nicole Rafiee

Intrusive thoughts aren’t quirks-OCD is real, treatable, and here’s what actually helps.

Creator Nicole Rafiee sits down with JED consulting expert Dr. April Toure to unpack what obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) really feels like, how obsessions and compulsions show up (far beyond “cleaning”), and what effective treatment looks like. They talk diagnosis (including Y-BOCS screening), intrusive “sticky thoughts,” reassurance seeking, and why ERP (exposure and response prevention) plus medication can be game-changers. You’ll also hear practical ways friends and family can support without feeding compulsions—and how humor, openness, and the right clinician make recovery possible.
