22 Caliber Surgery: George’s Horrible, Awful OCD Cure
George was a psychiatric patient whose Obsessive Compulsive Disorder was so advanced that it drove him to attempt suicide. He survived the attempt, but in doing so, he was miraculously cured of his OCD symptoms. In this episode, we talk about the frontal lobe, the function of the prefrontal cortex, and famous neuroscience stories like Phineas Gage and George. Then we chat with Comedian Dan Wilbur.
Trigger warning: This episode contains themes of mental health, guns and suicide.
