Summary: What does it really mean to have OCD? In today's episode Professor Paul Salkovskis explains the various manifestations of OCD and their corresponding behaviours, we discover why OCD is an “affliction of the nice”, why the average sufferer waits 11 years before seeking treatment, why the media and general public think it’s okay to mock the condition, and why ultimately OCD is "an unnecessary illness". *** BOOKS MENTIONED *** "Break Free from OCD" https://amzn.to/2MsKooz DISCLAIMER: My Own Worst Enemy is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.co.uk and affiliated sites.
