In episode 550 I chat with Chrissie Hodges. Chrissie is a Peer Support specialist, founder of OCD Gamechangers, and Author of ‘Pure OCD: The Invisible Side of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder’ and ‘The OCD Relapse Roadmap’. Chrissie was awarded the hero award at the 24th IOCDF conference in San Fran.
We discuss what’s new with her, her new book The OCD Relapse Roadmap, relapses in OCD, relapse prevention, the aspects and features of a relapse, having a plan for potential relapses, acceptance, and much more. Hope it helps.
