Harm and POCD Recovery

I wanted to take a minute to talk about POCD and how recovery is truly possible! I recently completed a podcast and YouTube episode with my dear client named Pat. https://youtu.be/9vbWAa6UeIo?si=PIzwdZ4rDxSM08hp

Pat truly is an inspiration with all of the work he has done on his OCD.  Now he shares his story to help encourage others. Understanding POCD and Harm OCD is difficult for those that suffer with these very distressing thoughts, as well as their friends and family. Let's share our stories to help reduce the misunderstanding and educate others.

Imagine having unwanted thoughts to harm others or children. This can be what occupies the mind of someone with these types of OCD. It can be incredibly uncomfortable and distressing, often leading individuals to feel depressed or that they are a bad person.

In our latest video, we delve into two specific types of OCD—Pedophile Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (POCD) and Harm OCD. These subtypes often provoke intense distress, shame and guilt. Our goal is to shed light on the misconceptions surrounding them, offering insights and strategies for those who might be struggling.

Whether you're someone dealing with these obsessions or a friend wanting to offer support, this video is a valuable resource to better understand and address POCD and Harm OCD. #ocdrecovery #POCD #ocdawareness #stopthestigma
