Tracie Ibrahim knows firsthand how OCD can quietly wreck a person’s day. In college, reading meant going forward, then backward, then forward again — just to feel “right.” As a mom, grocery trips were derailed by terrifying, intrusive thoughts. At work, simple emails turned into obsessive loops of rewriting and rereading. In this video, she shares what untreated OCD did to her focus, her routines, and her sense of control — and how Exposure and Response Prevention therapy helped her reclaim her time.
