This is such a massive WIN for the #OCDCommunity + #OCDAwareness. Whether you’re already diagnosed, you don’t have OCD but learned new things, or you’re one of the countless folks sharing that they felt truly seen for the first time—I PROMISE you’re not alone & we got you. ❤️ @ologies.bsky.social 5/🧵

The power of platforming *real* OCD on @ologies.bsky.social—one of the biggest podcasts in the WORLD—is profound for such a misunderstood & stigmatized condition. These episodes are MASTERFUL (as always) & will save MILLIONS of lives. To have the honor of being part of this is indescribable. 🥹 4/🧵

I can’t thank @alieward.bsky.social enough for covering #OCD (with not one, but TWO eps!) on @ologies.bsky.social with SUCH depth, (healthy😉) diligence, compassion, & care. And Alie, thank you for YOUR bravery + vulnerability in sharing your own lived experience w/ us. You are SO seen & loved. ❤️ 3/🧵

We cover SO much on @ologies.bsky.social, including: My story, POCD+taboo+harm themes, mental compulsions, #OCD neurobiology, genetics, evidence-based treatments, emerging psychedelic research (+ my lived experience), neuromodulation, the devastating consequences of stigma & misinformation, +! 🧠 2/🧵
