To have a good relationship we need to learn to speak the love languages that our partner can understand and feel. This can be particularly uncomfortable for people who are obsessive-compulsive, because they are most familiar with one particular language. But learning a new language is always good, and the energy and determination that come with being obsessive-compulsive can help you to learn it.

While I find parts of the Tao Te Ching baffling, exasperating and mystifying, Lao Tzu's encouragement to accept things as they are still conveys an attitude toward life that I find to be a good counterpoint to my driven nature. Since Taoist wisdom can be especially useful to people who are compulsive, perfectionist, and obsessive, I thought it might be helpful for me to share how this enduring and poetic book has helped me.

What if your dizziness and anxiety were more connected than you ever imagined? Join us in a groundbreaking conversation with Dr. Yonit Arthur, a board-certified audiologist and vestibular specialist, as we unravel the unexpected link between chronic dizziness and mental health challenges like anxiety and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Dr. Arthur sheds light on how sudden bouts of dizziness can trigger a cascade of anxiety, even in those without previous mental health issues, leading to a cycle of distress that can magnify symptoms. Understanding these intricate dynamics is crucial for anyone striving for effective recovery and relief.As we journey through the emotional landscape of neuroplastic healing, we emphasize the balance between seeking reassurance and embracing uncertainty. Dr. Arthur explains how excessive reassurance can lead to unhelpful obsessive patterns, while learning to tolerate uncertainty can pave the way for long-term healing. By fostering a personalized healing approach, especially for those with obsessive-compulsive patterns, we empower listeners to manage fear and anxiety more effectively.

Most people get happier as they reach their 50s, 60s and 70s. But people who are obsessive, compulsive and perfectionistic may miss out on the potential benefits. Their default strategy of control can block the those benefits, and leave them metaphorically pushing a rock up a hill, only to have it come crashing down again. The solution is to relinquish some control and welcome all the aging has to offer.

Did you know there is a psychological approach to treating OCD that DOESN'T focus on preventing compulsions?To mark OCD Awareness Week, I am joined by Amanda Petrik-Gardner, a licensed clinical professional counsellor specializing in inference-based CBT (iCBT). We discuss the principles of iCBT, which differs from the traditional exposure and response prevention (ERP) approach. Instead, iCBT focuses on the reasoning process behind obsessional doubts rather than stopping compulsions. Our conversation highlights the concept of inferential confusion and the feared possible self, aiming to restore trust in the individual's real self. The conversation provides insights into the practical aspects of iCBT therapy, valuable insights into this purely cognitive approach that seeks to resolve the roots of obsessive doubt.  Highlights of the episode include:03:10 What is iCBT?04:02 Core Concepts of iCBT07:30 Research and Evidence for iCBT09:03 Inferential Confusion Explained12:39 Components Leading to Inferential Confusion18:34 The Feared Possible SelfThis week's guest:Amanda Petrik-Gardner, LCPC, LPC, LIMHP specialises in the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders.

Parenting for Type A, driven, ambitious, high-achieving and obsessive-compulsive parents requires a different approach than the one we usually bring to our lives. Rather than pushing it requires waiting, in addition to work it requires play, and rather than achievement it requires connection. And because we don't always come across as we think we do, our children may experience us as being more demanding than we actually are. Both Type A parents and their children will find this informative. Please join us for this research-based exploration of the perils and potentials of the obsessive-compulsive parent. 

Take a moment to step back and look at the big picture of your life. Too often we lose track and lose our way, allowing defenses, habits, and behavioral avoidance to take us away from what's important. This may be most true of those with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder--whose intense drive can take them off course more quickly than other disorders. As even the APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual says in its diagnostic criteria for OCPD, "Is preoccupied with details, rules, lists, order, organization or schedules to the extent that the major point of the activity is lost." Take that same energy, plug it into honoring meaningful priorities, and you're on track to becoming a healthier compulsive.

How you handle anxiety is one of the main factors that determine whether your obsessive-compulsive personality works for you or against you.

You've got determination and drive, but if your anxiety drives you rather than your passion driving you, you're going to be white-knuckling it for a long time. Join me for an exploration of how to handle anxiety and the fears that lie beneath it.

Even once you've begun to channel your obsessive-compulsive tendencies more constructively, you will be faced with triggers, circumstances that have the potential to make you react in ways you regret. This episode explores just what triggers are, offers examples, and offers tools to help you manage them more wisely. 

In this episode, we discuss understanding OCD through an IFS lens. We explore particular challenges in treating OCD that arise from the interplay of the neurological and psychological factors that underly the condition. We also discuss how IFS integrates effective elements of other empirically validated treatments for OCD, and why IFS enhances the effectiveness of these interventions.  Melissa Mose, LMFT, has been in private practice for 30 years and has specialized in working with OCD for roughly half of that. She is currently the president of OCD Southern California, an affiliate of the International OCD Foundation and she is an international speaker and educator on Obsessive Compulsive disorder. As a Level 3 trained and certified Internal Family Systems therapist and an IFSI-approved professional consultant, Melissa is committed to developing a more compassionate, IFS-informed approach to evidence-based treatment for OCD.

In the realm of mental health treatment, evidence-based approaches are the guiding lights that lead individuals toward recovery. The journey to understanding and effectively treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) has witnessed a fascinating evolution, marked by various therapeutic approaches that delve deep into the intricacies of the human mind. In today's episode of The OCD Whisperer Podcast, we are thrilled to be joined by Dr. Jon Abramowitz, a leading figure in the field of OCD research, with numerous published books and research articles to his name. He is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience, Research Professor of Psychiatry, and Director of the Anxiety and Stress Disorders Clinic at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He also runs a small practice specializing in the psychological treatment of OCD. During our conversation, we talked about evidence-based treatments for OCD. We discuss the effectiveness of exposure response prevention (ERP), acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), and inference-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (ICBT). Dr. Abramowitz emphasizes that all three treatments have been proven effective, but the effectiveness varies for each approach.

Do you find in your desire to honor God's ways that you've become obsessive compulsive about sin, identifying sin and trying to get rid of sin in your life? I get many emails and questions regarding sin that have intense obsessive distortions. It drives people to compulsively check for sin and find out what things […]

In this episode of the The Healthy Compulsive Podcast we explore the relations between ideals, rules and commandments. People with Obsessive-Compulisve Personality may try to remedy insecurity by becoming overly conscientious. They may convert ideals into commandments, and good guidelines become rigid & destructive. 

Understanding whether you have OCPD can be helpful not only in managing your symptoms, but also finding meaning in your personality. It's also helpful to distinguish between obsessive and compulsive, and obsessions and compulsions. 

In episode 397 I chat with Dr Anthony Pinto (Ph.D). Anthony is Director of the Northwell Health OCD Center at Zucker Hillside Hospital on Long Island in NY, and Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. Dr. Pinto has an extensive publication record, with over 100 manuscripts/chapters on obsessive compulsive disorder and related conditions, particularly obsessive compulsive personality disorder (OCPD). He is a leading authority on OCPD and co-edited a comprehensive book on the subject (Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder, American Psychiatric Association Publishing, 2020). He is the lead author of the self-rated Family Accommodation Scale for OCD, which is being used worldwide. He serves on the International OCD Foundation Scientific and Clinical Advisory Board. Obsessive compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) is a chronic maladaptive pattern of excessive perfectionism, preoccupation with orderliness/detail, and need for control over one's environment that frequently co-occurs with OCD and can complicate its treatment. Despite its prevalence, many clinicians are not aware of how to treat OCPD. Dr. Pinto shares with us the core features of OCPD, how the condition impacts functioning, and explains how it can be differentiated from OCD. He also focuses on cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for the maladaptive traits and behaviours of OCPD. As well as navigating therapy for OCD while also having OCPD. Hope it helps.  Show notes: https://theocdstories.com/episode/pinto-397  The podcast is made possible by NOCD. NOCD offers effective, convenient therapy available in the US and outside the US.

You may have never heard of scrupulosity, but it is possible it has hijacked the religious experience of you or someone you love. In her September 2019 Ensign article, Dr. Debra Theobald McClendon wrote, “Scrupulosity masquerades as a desirable, higher standard of righteousness and personal worthiness—but it's not!” So, what is scrupulosity? How does it manifest itself? How is it treated? Dr. McClendon helps us answer all of these questions and more on this week's episode. “If it is a spiritual prompting, and you go through the things you need to repent, including a confession to an ecclesiastical leader if necessary, you will feel better. If it is driven by toxic anxiety, you will not feel better, because it's an anxiety issue. It's not a moral issue or a spiritual sensitivity issue.” —Debra Theobald McClendon Show Notes 3:11- What is Scrupulosity?8:34- How Does It Manifests Itself?12:39- Confession16:18- Therapy and Treatment23:41- Correcting Sin While Not Giving Into Obsessions26:18- Triggers31:44- Godly Sorrow?34:02- How to Help Others Who May Be Struggling38:48- Too Late?41:35- Repentance is Not a Checklist43:31- The Atonement45:16- What Does It Mean to be “All In” the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

This is a republishing of an archived episode with Sarah Peyton."Continuous effort — not strength or intelligence — is the key to unlocking our potential."-Winston ChurchillI'm going to let you in on a secret. The Trauma Therapist Podcast isn't really about trauma. It's actually a podcast about the human spirit. It's about the incredible people who've experienced trauma and the people who work with those people. This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with David Carr and there is no doubt that David's story is one of inspiration. Devastation, yes. But resilience, motivation and inspiration, too.David has written an exposé titled, 'We Can Overcome: An American Trauma.' This is riveting, and at times hard to read, and yet also inspiring and empowering. (And I'm not getting paid to say that.)As a boy, David heard the stories of what his father endured as a boy: Fists appearing like unexpected rain, kicks in the side, and nails in his skin. But Carr's father never set a hand on him. The cycle of abuse, however, was not broken: David suffered mental and physical abuse from the people that were supposed to protect him.As an adult, he realizes that his continuing mental anguish was self-inflicted. In challenging himself to see his life in a new way, David realized that the story of his childhood trauma did not consist of what happened to him, but rather way he responded to what happened. This realization set the stage for him to embark on a transformative journey—one that began as a terrified child—but has since included him as a mixed martial artist, as the vice chairman of The Joyful Child Foundation, and as an advocate for children's rights nationwide, and he has built two successful international companies.He lives on a Southern California ranch style home with his wife of twenty years and three children. I loved speaking with David. His strength and courage is pretty palpable, and so too is his recognition and acceptance of his own vulnerability.In This EpisodeDavid's ExposeDavid's WebsiteDavid on FacebookContact DavidThe Courage to Heal: A Guide for Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse, Ellen Bass,‎ Laura DavisBrain Lock, Twentieth Anniversary Edition: Free Yourself from Obsessive-Compulsive, Jeffrey M.

But when it's a personality trait people can often just get labelled as "difficult" and they don't seek help.Support the showSubmit a question https://richardnicholls.net/question/ Social Media Links Twitter https://twitter.com/richardnicholls Instagram https://www.instagram.com/richardnichollsreal Facebook https://www.facebook.com/RichardNichollsAuthor Youtube https://www.youtube.com/richardnicholls Mastadon https://mastodon.social/@richardnicholls

Robyn Dobbins is a new but dear friend of mine, whom I was lucky enough to meet at Low Carb Denver 2023! Robyn has suffered from many serious health conditions, including postpartum depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, obesity, depression, Hashimoto's disease, and bipolar. After years of medications and treatments that had limited success, Robyn discovered a low-carbohydrate diet, through the amazing work of Vinnie Tortorich, who we've hosted on Boundless Body Radio on episodes 55 and 243 of our show! Her symptoms of bipolar disorder went into remission on a No Sugars No Grains® diet, which eventually evolved into a strict carnivorous diet. On the carnivore diet, Robyn has lost 50 lbs., and for 4 years has been healthy and medication free. Robyn is one of the Admins on Vinnie Tortorich's No Sugars No Grains® Facebook Group. She has also been the cohost of Lunch & Learn on the No Sugars No Grains® Eat Happy Kitchen® Clubhouse.

For over a century, psychoanalytic psychology has recognized certain types of personality configurations that we see repeatedly. A clinician who understands these familiar patterns has a map of the patient's interior terrain to help navigate treatment. In today's episode of the podcast, we are joined by Dr. Jonathan Shedler to discuss obsessive-compulsive personality and the continuum on which personalities operate. Link to blog here.
