Get to know OCD

Nothing Was Ever “Just Right” For Alex Anele's OCD


Listen Later

Alex Anele has been creating makeup videos online for more than a decade, building an audience of over a million people along the way. Behind the scenes, her lifelong OCD made almost everything feel unfinished and never quite “right.” Tasks dragged on. Social plans fell away. Even success didn’t bring relief, because OCD kept telling her she wasn’t doing enough — or being enough.


Alex joins the Get to Know OCD podcast to talk openly about how that constant sense of wrongness affected her career and daily life, the moment she realized she couldn’t keep pushing through it alone, and what finally helped when she sought the right kind of treatment.
