- OCD AND MORTALITY: THE FEAR OF DEATH: PREPARING FOR LIFE'S ONLY CERTAINTY
OCD AND MORTALITY: THE FEAR OF DEATH: PREPARING FOR LIFE'S ONLY CERTAINTY
In this episode, I address the common fear of death,
particularly among individuals with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I share a personal anecdote about my near-death experience at age 7 and discuss methods I use to cope with the fear of death in my daily life. The episode offers suggestions for managing this fear, emphasizing that regardless of one'sbeliefs (religious, spiritual, or non-religious), there are practical steps one can take to alleviate anxiety and uncertainty surrounding death.My blog and current social media links are listed below:

32 min - MY PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH OCD: I WAS OBSESSED WITH A FRIEND
MY PERSONAL
ENCOUNTER WITH OCD: I WAS OBSESSED WITH A FRIENDIn today’s episode, I deconstruct my current obsession. WhileI am happy to say that I am at the end of this OCD spell, which has lasted over five years, I still have to be very cautiousof triggers. Instead of avoiding these triggers, I use them for exposure therapy, turning them into a beneficial tool for healing.Deconstructing this spell was easier because it is the most
recent. Despite the challenges and social consequences, it was during this spell that I learned how my obsessions start. I can now use this to hopefully prevent new obsessions in the future. So,in a way, this obsession was a blessing to me.Thank you so much for listening. Stay tuned for more
interviews with others who are living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.My blog and current social media links are listed below:

About Around and Around - The OCD Circle
From the publisher's feed
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.
