Tim and Matt discuss their mutual background of wrestling through devout  religious faith while suffering from OCD, resulting in something  referred to as scrupulosity - essentially the religious version of OCD.  Though we have both walked away from our religious faith, there is no  religion bashing here...just two people trying to live healthier lives  discussing some of the unique pitfalls of faith when mixed with mental  illness. We also talk a lot about how Mindfulness has helped us navigate  our struggles. Enjoy!

Whether it is from stigma, misinformation, or plain old ignorance, people with mental illnesses rarely feel fully understood or accepted. This podcast will encourage you that you are, in fact, not alone. Join us in creating a community of people who fight this lonely battle together.
