Why You're Not Feeling Better Yet | The Real Reason You Stay Stuck in Anxiety & StressHave you ever asked yourself, “Why am I not feeling better yet?”You've read the books, listened to the podcasts, tried the coping tools — but somehow, the anxiety or heaviness still returns.In this episode of The Restored Minds Show, licensed therapist Matt Codde, LCSW reveals why most of us stay stuck: we're trying to avoid or fix our emotions instead of learning how to feel and release them.Matt breaks down how resistance, distraction, and over-effort actually keep you trapped in the same emotional loop — and how true healing begins when you stop running from discomfort and start transforming your relationship with it.If you've been working hard on yourself but still don't feel peace, this conversation will help you see exactly what's missing.

In this solo episode, I open up about my personal experience with OCD and the fear of being “found out." I talk about the constant worry many with OCD have that they're not as good, moral, or put-together as others might think. I share how this fear has shown up in both my personal and professional life, and how it connects to themes like moral OCD (or moral scrupulosity) and relationship OCD.I share what it may feel like when those thoughts try to convince you that you're living a lie, that you've done something wrong, or that you need to always prove you're a good person....and how exhausting it can be to live that way.This episode is a reminder that you're not alone and that this fear is common with OCD, and not a reflection of your worth.I'm so thankful that you're here and hope you know you are not alone.STAY CONNECTED:INSTA: @trustandthriveTIKOK: @trustandthriveEMAIL: trustandthrive@gmail.com

In this episode of Insights From the Couch, we're diving deep into what Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) really is—and what it's not. Forget the casual "I'm so OCD" comment—this conversation is all about the real, often misunderstood experiences of those living with this challenging and complex disorder. We're joined by two of our favorite experts: Dr. Brady Bradshaw, a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist, and Dr. Robyn Cohen, a developmental neuropsychologist. Together, we explore the many faces of OCD, from harm OCD to contamination fears, and mental compulsions that happen entirely inside someone's mind.We're also pulling back the curtain on the often-overlooked aspects of OCD like the shame, stigma, and difficulty getting an accurate diagnosis. Whether you're someone navigating OCD, a therapist wanting to learn more, or a loved one trying to understand what's going on—this episode offers education, empathy, and evidence-based strategies for healing. Plus, we talk treatment, including exposure and response prevention (ERP), medication, and what real recovery can look like. Episode Highlights:[0:26] - Welcome and overview of today's topic: the real story behind OCD [1:31] - Meet Dr. Bradshaw and Dr. Cohen: their roles and experiences with OCD [3:02] - What OCD actually is vs. common misconceptions [6:10] - Breaking down the subtypes: harm, contamination, symmetry, hoarding, and more [8:10] - Mental compulsions explained with powerful real-life examples [11:01] - Is OCD just intense anxiety? Exploring how it's neurologically distinct [13:20] - The overlap of OCD with ADHD, autism, trichotillomania, and body-focused repetitive behaviors [17:42] - The diagnostic challenge: why OCD is often missed or misdiagnosed [21:43] - What's going on in the brain during OCD—and how treatment changes the brain [23:44] - Living with OCD: analogies, partner dynamics, and the emotional toll [25:27] - The gold standard: treatment options like ERP and when meds are needed [28:19] - The importance of working with experienced ERP-trained therapists [32:53] - Pushing the limits with exposure—and why it works [37:50] - Naming the OCD: why it helps and how it shifts control [39:13] - The importance of trust and creativity in therapeutic interventions [40:07] - Relationship OCD and health anxiety—subtypes or something else? [43:03] - How to support a loved one with OCD (without enabling compulsions) [46:35] - Final takeaways: treatment works, and there's real freedom on the other side [47:36] - Where to find Dr. Bradshaw and Dr. Cohen Links and Resources:·         Dr. Brady Bradshaw: https://www.bradybradshawmd.com/ ·         Dr. Robyn Cohen: https://theneurocode.com/ If today's discussion resonated with you or sparked curiosity, please rate, follow, and share "Insights from the Couch" with others.

No Room for In-Between: Literal Thinking and Communication Ruptures In this raw and honest episode, Patricia (she/her) shares her ongoing challenges with neurodivergent miscommunication, community rupture, and the emotional toll of being misunderstood. From neighborhood conflicts to horse training lessons, from cancel culture to navigating friendships and travel as an autistic person, Patricia opens up about the messy, contradictory realities of life, belonging, and growth. Listeners will walk away feeling less alone in their struggles with relationships, self-advocacy, and embracing both discomfort and joy. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · Why Patricia didn't want to record this episode—and why she did anyway · The ongoing story of neighborhood rupture and the painful dynamics of miscommunication · How neurodivergent communication differences play into misunderstanding and conflict · The discomfort of being misunderstood as an autistic person who values precision and exactness · The struggle of wanting repair but receiving ongoing hurtful communication instead · Recognizing when "these are not our people" and finding peace in letting go · Cancel culture: when it's useful, when it's harmful, and Patricia's lived perspective · How language change matters—and conversations with her husband about accountability in speech · The empowerment that comes from horse training and facing fear with big draft horses · Lessons from working with animals: calm presence, assertiveness, and learning new leadership skills · Navigating differences in friendships around money, dining, and travel · The autistic push-pull between craving sameness and being invited into novelty · Strategies for managing overwhelm when faced with too many choices or new experiences · How safe friendships allow for authenticity and unmasking · The sadness and privilege of having barriers to change, novelty, and travel—and finding supportive companions · Building resilience through small trial runs and intentional fun · The importance of bumping up against resistance to live a fuller, lighter life · Patricia's reflections on aging, matching tattoos with her kids, and wanting to add more joy SOUND BITES · There are times when we need to speak up, and there are times when we need to let people misunderstand us and sit with the discomfort." · "If you're autistic, precision and exactness are high values—being misunderstood can feel unbearable." · "This isn't personal. This is about neurodivergent miscommunication. And that gave me relief—at least for a little while." · "I'm more than two-thirds through my life, and I want to whip it up a little bit. If you're going to do some fun stuff, you better do it soon." · "Sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. You are perfect exactly as you are in a world not made for us." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are.
