(5) Josiah Osgood explains that by 58 BCE, Caesar's allies sent Cato to Cyprus to liquidate its treasury, a mission Catoperformed with obsessive rectitude. Simultaneously, Caesar departed for Gaul, building a formidable military reputation and a deep bond with his soldiers through strategic risk-taking. The alliance between Caesar and Pompey was cemented by Pompey's marriage to Caesar's daughter, Julia. However, Julia's death in childbirth severed this vital link. Catoexploited this loss, romancing Pompey toward the senatorial side as anarchy and riots plagued Rome, signaling the beginning of the Triumvirate's collapse.

The discipline paradox: structure without adaptability creates brittleness.The tree that bends in the wind survives—rigid one snaps. I had perfect routine, then one bad day destroyed everything.

Americans are Obsessed with Obsession

Shopify: Start your $1/month trial at Shopify.com/trent Hey Rehabbers. Let me be real with you for a second. Change isn't hard because you're weak. Change isn't hard because you don't want it bad enough. Change is hard because your brain — the same brain that's trying to protect you — is wired to pull you back to what's comfortable. Back to what's familiar. Back to the version of you that you're trying to leave behind. And here's what nobody's talking about: it only takes one day off to start that slide. One day. One excuse. One "I'll get back to it tomorrow" — and before you know it, you're back at the beginning wondering how you got there again. In this episode, I'm breaking down why motivation will always let you down, and why obsessive consistency is the only real answer. Not hype. Not a highlight-reel mindset. The kind of consistency that's built in the moments nobody sees — when it's hard, when you're tired, when a part of you is begging to quit. We're going deep on: Why motivation isn't enough — and what to replace it with How your identity is built by your daily actions — not your intentions What it actually takes to become unshakably consistent — even on your worst days Why "one off day" is more dangerous than you think — and how to stop the spiral before it starts This one is raw. This one is real. And this one is built to call you higher — because that's what Rehabbers do. We don't just talk about change. We become it. Real change doesn't start with the right circumstances. It doesn't start when life gets easier. It starts with you. Let's get it.

Have you ever found yourself obsessing over someone, constantly checking your phone, replaying conversations, or imagining a future that hasn't happened yet? It might feel like love… but often, it's actually your Attachment Style being activated. Obsessive thoughts and emotional intensity aren't random. They follow predictable patterns based on how you're wired for connection and understanding these patterns can change everything. Episode Summary In this episode, Thais Gibson breaks down Attachment Styles & the psychology of obsession, explaining how each Attachment Style experiences attraction, fixation, and emotional intensity differently. You'll learn how Anxious Attachment, Dismissive Avoidant, Fearful Avoidant, and Securely Attached individuals each experience obsession; from hyperactivation and chasing, to emotional suppression, to push-pull cycles. Thais also explains why obsession is often a sign of Attachment Activation rather than true compatibility, and how building internal safety and meeting your own needs can transform obsessive patterns into secure, healthy connection. Key Takeaways ✔️ Anxious Attachment often experiences obsession as urgency and fear of disconnection ✔️ Dismissive Avoidant individuals may obsess privately while appearing emotionally distant ✔️ Fearful Avoidant patterns create intense push-pull cycles of closeness and withdrawal ✔️ Emotional chaos can feel familiar and be mistaken for connection ✔️ Obsession is often attachment activation, not necessarily love ✔️ Securely Attached individuals are less likely to obsess due to internal stability ✔️ Meeting your own needs reduces fixation on others Timestamps 00:00 – Attachment Styles & The Psychology of Obsession 00:54 – Attachment Style #1 01:57 – Attachment Style #2 04:02 – Attachment Style #3 06:09 – 7-Day Free Trial + Needs Course Promo 07:02 – Attachment Style #4 08:33 – Learn How to Heal at the Personal Development School Meet the Host Thais Gibson is the founder of The Personal Development School and a world leader in attachment theory.

What does it actually mean to "trust life" — especially when life is handing you something genuinely hard? In this Meditation Party episode (originally aired in 2024), Dan, Sebene Selassie, and Jeff Warren dig into that question from multiple angles: as a personal mantra, a philosophical stance, and a daily practice. Plus: listener questions on rumination, work-life balance, and the eternal napping-vs.-meditating debate. "Trust Life" vs. "This Is the Curriculum" — Sebene shares the origin of her tattoo and what the mantra has meant through years of health challenges.  The three timescales of practice — Jeff breaks down how meditation works in the moment, over months and years, and across the arc of a whole life. The third one is where things get interesting. Obsessive thinking / rumination — Practical tools from all three, including one from Sebene involving a trampoline, and one from a clinical psychologist that will make you feel ridiculous in the best way. Sebene Selassie describes herself as a "writer, teacher, and immigrant-weirdo." She teaches meditation on the ten percent happier app and is the author of a great book called You Belong. She's based in Brooklyn.  Jeff Warren is also a writer and a meditation teacher. He and Dan co-wrote the book, Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics. He also hosts the Consciousness Explorers podcast. He's based in Toronto.  Related episodes:  How to Stay Calm No Matter What's Happening | Sebene Selassie and Jeff WarrenScience-Based Tools for When You're Stressed, Obsessed, or Overthinking | Dr. Jenny Taitz Get the 10% with Dan Harris app hereSign up for Dan's free newsletter hereFollow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTokSubscribe to our YouTube Channel To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris

Obsessive thoughts. Compulsive behaviors. Anxiety that won't switch off. What if your thyroid could be playing a bigger role than you think? In this episode, we explore the surprising connection between OCD and conditions like Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism—and why mental health symptoms are sometimes rooted deeper in the body than most people realize.Emerging research shows that people with autoimmune thyroid disorders may have higher rates of OCD, with thyroid hormone imbalances potentially affecting key brain chemicals like serotonin, dopamine, and glutamate. When these systems are disrupted, it can fuel anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and compulsive patterns—making thyroid health an often-overlooked piece of the puzzle.If you've ever felt like your symptoms don't fully make sense—or aren't being taken seriously—this episode connects the dots.

That is abusive behavior, which has nothing at all to do with love. It's brokenness! When people are that way they're broken, immature, and lack things necessary for them to see clearly. They're of unhealed hearts and minds!  When people get with abusive people they are individuals who are lacking something and seeking something. You're always treated how you've allowed. Don't ignore the signs, red flags, or your own intuition.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

Compulsive traits are often judged as rigid or unhealthy, but they originate in qualities that once helped humans survive. This essay reframes compulsiveness as an adaptive style—rooted in conscientiousness, focus, and persistence—and explores how these traits can become strengths when consciously directed. Through research, evolutionary psychology, and a clinical vignette, it shows how finding the right “calling” transforms compulsion from a burden into a gift.

One day your child is themselves. They're laughing, playing, arguing with their siblings, asking for snacks, being who they have always been. And then something shifts. It can feel like it happens overnight. Suddenly there is fear where there wasn't fear before. Anxiety that doesn't make sense. Obsessive thoughts. Out of nowhere rituals and OCD like behaviors. Maybe tics. Rage that feels completely out of character. Sleep goes to heck. Separation becomes unbearable. And you're left standing there wondering what just happened to my child.If you are listening to this and your chest feels tight because this is your story, I need you to hear me. You are not imagining this. Your child did not just decide to become someone else. And you are not dramatic for knowing something deeper is going on. I don't care how many specialists you have gone to, how many times you have been told it's just anxiety, just OCD, just behavior, or just a phase. When a child shifts like this, it is our responsibility as mothers to look for answers and I am so proud of you for being here. Maybe you have heard of PANS and PANDAS. Maybe you have been deep in research for months. Or maybe this is the first time you are hearing those words. PANS stands for Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome, and PANDAS stands for Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal infections. They are immune responses associated with strep bacteria, but not only the kind found in strep throat.Healing from PANS and PANDAS is not about flipping a switch. It is about restoring balance at the foundation so the body is no longer stuck in chronic immune activation.If you are navigating this right now, I see you. You are rightfully scared. The grief is unbelievably deep. Add in the exhaustion and it can feel like you will never get your child back. But your child is not broken. Their body is responding to something very real. It is communicating with you through symptoms as a way of asking for help. And when you listen to the body and support it at the root, healing becomes possible. They can and they will heal.Despite what anyone has ever told you, you are not crazy for knowing there is more to this story. And you are not powerless. I cannot wait for you to see what happens when you stop chasing flares and start restoring balance at the foundation. The steadiness you are longing for is not out of reach. It starts right here. I will have the PANS/PANDAS healing bundle linked for you in the show notes. Sending you so much love as you navigate this.Thanks for listening!

Some free (but delayed) bonus bits talking about last year and what we want to do this upcoming year!

A Husky narrates a compassionate, humorous, and perceptive account of living with a human who has obsessive‑compulsive personality disorder traits. Through keen canine observation, the Husky contrasts natural dog instincts—flexibility, presence, connection—with the rigid routines, perfectionism, rationalization, and emotional struggles of the human world. The story explores themes of routine, control, relationships, emotional expression, and the possibility of change. Ultimately, the dog encourages humans to keep perspective, let go more easily, and remember what truly matters: connection, simplicity, and a few good belly scratches.

This week’s check-in on The Jubal Show is pure, unfiltered chaos—in the most relatable way. One cast member reveals a full-blown food obsession that’s gone from soup to dip… and now everything is getting dunked

Eight years after their divorce, Michael McKee allegedly told Monique Tepe he could kill her at any time. Now he's charged with her murder — and the murder of her husband Spencer. Robin Dreeke, former FBI special agent and behavioral analysis expert, breaks down the unsealed affidavit in the case against the Illinois vascular surgeon accused of driving 900 miles to execute the couple in their Weinland Park home on December 30th. The documents reveal alleged strangulation and sexual assault during the marriage, years of threatening statements reported by witnesses, and a surveillance trip to their property while they were at a football game three weeks before the killings. McKee faces four counts of aggravated murder with firearm specifications including the use of a suppressor. Robin explains what the behavioral pattern tells us about obsession that doesn't fade, why high professional intelligence doesn't translate to criminal sophistication, and what Monique's gut reaction at halftime of that Big Ten Championship game tells us about how victims sense danger before they can prove it.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TepeMurders #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimeToday #ColumbusOhio #FBI #DomesticViolence #AggravatedMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Compulsive behavior is the product of ones need to establish a sense of control amidst all their anxious thoughts. Obsessive compulsion is fairly common — the National Institute of Mental Health say 2.3% of adults struggle with OCD in their lifetime. Many people get stuck in cycles of excessive and irrational performance BUT what if I told you that oftentimes spirituality and religion can exacerbate these tendencies?Scrupulosity—often called religious OCD—is a quiet struggle in many churches, where sincere Christians feel stuck in constant guilt and fear. They worry they're never doing enough for God, replaying thoughts and prayers over and over just to feel “safe.” Instead of resting in Christ, they live exhausted and unsure. It looks like devotion on the outside, but inside it's a trap of fear that steals joy and confidence. On today's show we hope to shine a light on this often-misunderstood battle to better understand how the gospel frees people from the weight of compulsive religion and leads them back into real peace with Christ.To guide us through this important conversation, we're joined by Jonathan Kindler, biblical counselor, faculty professor at LFBI and host of the Sound Mind podcast.Visit https://www.soundmind.live/podcastVisit https://www.lfbi.org/learnmore

What if you could go back and prepare for D-Day? Not to stop the betrayal from happening, but to soften the blow, steady your nervous system, and walk yourself through the darkest night of your soul with reverence, support, and a plan. In this deeply soulful Solstice episode, Lora guides you through a powerful re-imagining of D-Day using the energy of the winter solstice — the longest, darkest night of the year. Instead of bracing against the pain of betrayal, you'll learn how to “pack your bag” for the dark night of the soul: tending your body, nervous system, and subconscious so you can move through the darkness with preparation, not panic. Drawing on childbirth metaphors, subconscious re-patterning, and the natural arc from winter solstice to summer solstice, Lora walks you step-by-step into the memory of D-Day and back out again — this time as the woman you are now: wiser, more resourced, and no longer alone. You'll leave with a six-month roadmap for healing, micro-boundaries to support your body and soul, and a new understanding of why you're not broken… you're just ready for a different map.   Top 3 Takeaways Why D-Day still hijacks your body (and how to change it) How betrayal trauma locks into the subconscious mind and nervous system, and why you can't just “decide to stop ruminating” or think your way out of it. The Winter Solstice Betrayal Ritual: Preparing for the Dark Night of the Soul How to “pretend” solstice is your D-Day, pack your metaphoric bag, and consciously walk yourself into the darkness with support, tools, and reverence — so your body learns that you can bear it and you will come out the other side. From Winter Solstice to Summer Solstice: A Six-Month Healing Map How to set micro-boundaries, tiny daily practices, and structures of accountability that quietly rewire your life over six months — so one day you look up and realize, “It's lighter now. I'm actually okay… and I'm not obsessing anymore.”   Favorite Quote “The real tragedy of betrayal isn't the betrayal itself. It's failing to rise up afterward and reclaim your heart, your soul, your identity.”   About Lora Lora Cheadle, JD, CHt is a former attorney turned betrayal recovery coach, hypnotherapist, and author who helps women rebuild their identity and reclaim their power after infidelity and profound emotional betrayal.

We are at an all time high of mental illness diagnoses. Some argue the reason is better diagnostic methods, others because we are just increasing in mental un-health. The discussion in this episode is in regards to the prevalence of mental diagnoses and the impact on individuals. In  Brene Brown's bestselling book, Atlas of the Heart, she outlines 87 different emotions that are in and of themselves, normal and healthy. But when do we go over the line from normal to abnormal? From feeling some depression to being clinically depressed? Having anxiety or an anxiety disorder? Do we need or want an official diagnosis so we can get needed help? Or do we want to deny and boycott any such limiting label? I've brought on an expert to discuss it. Sarah Fay is an author, educator, and activist on the issue and has a book titled, Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses. Sarah from a young age displayed some unhealthy behaviors and was diagnosed, labeled, and treated. Over the next 30 years she went on to have multiple clinical diagnoses and labels for Anorexia, Major depressive disorder, Anxiety disorder, Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, Obsessive compulsive disorder, Bipolar disorder, and has also dealt with alcoholism, being a compulsive exerciser, and many bouts being suicidal. You name the drug, she's been prescribed it and taken it. Today…she is well, though still accepting of a couple diagnoses and medications, but has much to educate and warn us about regarding our current culture which has nearly half of all Americans being given an official, clinical diagnosis during their lifetime. Sarah Fay writes for many publications, including The New York Times, The Atlantic, Time, and The Paris Review. She is also on the faculty at Northwestern University. She's the founder of Pathological: The Movement, and you can her at sarahfay.org.
