Welcome to Around and Around – The OCD Circle. My name is Elizabeth and I have been living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder for over 60 years. I am not a therapist or a member of the medical community. I’m just an ordinary person like yourself, who will be sharing my thoughts and experiences with you, with the hope that you will feel less alone. If you don’t have OCD, I hope you will learn some information that will help you understand this disorder better.

    PURE OBSESSION: A CHAT WITH ZACHARY GITTELMAN

    PURE OBSESSION: A CHAT WITH ZACHARY GITTELMAN  In today’s conversation, Zachary Gittelman, a 29-year-old living in Manhattan, shares his experience with Pure O, a form of OCD marked by distressing thoughts (obsessions) without visible compulsions. His OCD symptoms became pronounced in his early 20s after moving away from his twin brother, with his obsessions often involving self-harm thoughts. Through years of therapy, including ERP (Exposure Response Therapy), Zachary has learned to manage his OCD and now helps others via his website, themangohealth.com, which provides OCD resources and self-guided ERP tools.

    Managing OCD During COVID: My First Experience and Key Lessons Learned

    Managing OCD During COVID: My First Experience and Key Lessons Learned Today, I discuss my experience of having COVID for the first time and how I managed my OCD during that period. I explored the challenges of balancing pandemic-related health anxieties with my OCD tendencies and the coping strategies I used, such as mindfulness and self-care. I also reflect on what I learned about myself, including my resilience, the importance of accepting uncertainty, and developing self-compassion.

    FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT: JOSH KIRSCHENBAUM'S JOURNEY WITH OCD AND SELF-HEALING

    FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT: JOSH KIRSCHENBAUM'S JOURNEY WITH OCD AND SELF-HEALING In today's episode, I speak with Josh Kirschenbaum, a 39-year-old from Philadelphia who was diagnosed with OCD in his mid-30s. Big trigger warning here! Josh shares that he has experienced suicidal thoughts since the age of 6 and these are discussed throughout much of this episode. He discusses the compulsive behaviors he developed, particularly while driving, and the challenges he's faced in relationships. Despite these struggles, Josh has worked through much of it using self-directed cognitive ehavioral therapy and is currently in a positive place in his life.

    Unwelcome Guests: Navigating the Chaos of Intrusive Thoughts

    Unwelcome Guests: Navigating the Chaos of Intrusive Thoughts I have been managing my OCD very well for the past few years without the assistance of medications and now without monthly therapy sessions. But that doesn’t mean things are perfect around here. This week I talk about some of the recent obsessions I have been having and how I’ve dealt with them, also how I could have handled things differently to keep these thoughts from creeping in. Let me know in the comments some of your recent intrusive thoughts and what you did about them.

    Mid-Week Motivation - Erma Bombeck

    Mid-Week Motivation - Erma Bombeck I hope you enjoy these quotes by Erma Bombeck and that they help you with your mental health and life struggles. Erma Bombeck was a beloved American humorist and writer known for her witty and relatable take on the everyday experiences of suburban life, particularly from the perspective of a housewife. Born in 1927, she started her career as a newspaper columnist, and her humor columns, often centered around family life, quickly gained popularity. Her writing was characterized by a sharp wit, self-deprecating humor, and a deep understanding of the joys and frustrations of domestic life. Bombeck had an incredible knack for turning the mundane into something hilarious, whether she was writing about the trials of raising children, the challenges of marriage, or the absurdities of housework. She authored several best-selling books, including "The Grass Is Always Greener Over the Septic Tank" and "If Life Is a Bowl of Cherries, What Am I Doing in the Pits?" Her humor resonated with millions of readers who found comfort and laughter in her honest portrayal of the ups and downs of life. Despite her humor, Bombeck also touched on serious topics, often with a poignant twist that revealed her depth of empathy and understanding. She was widely appreciated not just for making people laugh, but for helping them feel seen and understood. Erma Bombeck's legacy lives on as one of America's most cherished humorists, and her work continues to be enjoyed by readers who appreciate the timeless humor and wisdom she brought to everyday life. Today, I’m speaking with a young woman named Kaur. Her family is from India and she is in her 20’s. She has an amazing story to tell. Struggling with depression, OCD and a diagnosed of Borderline Personality Disorder, she is taking control of her future by switching to a new treatment center. I was very impressed with this young lady’s resilience and hope for her future. Let’s take a listen.
