In episode 544 I chat with Nicole Sophia who has kindly agreed to share her OCD story with us. 

We discuss suicidal themed OCD, getting diagnosed young, meeting Dan Siegel, sexual orientation themed OCD, relationship themed OCD, her music, mental compulsions, feeling her feelings, self compassion, making friends with her OCD, expressing through being a singer song writer, using humour, and much more. Hope it helps.
