Ep 73: Is OCD & Anxiety Recovery Possible?

Is it possible to recover from OCD, Anxiety, and Psychological stress? Yes, I believe it is. In this episode, I am going to discuss my thoughts on recovery and the misconceptions around it. I often get asked if it is possible to recover and the problem with that question is it presupposes that the experience of anxiety is abnormal or a problem, which it is not. The question also presupposed that recovery means the absence of anxiety, which it doesn’t. However, when we understand the problem of OCD, Anxiety, and Psychological Stress as a loop one gets caught in we can begin to shift how we see recovery.  So in this episode, I am going to discuss my thoughts on what it means to recover from OCD, Anxiety, and Psychological Stress.
