Josh Fletcher on OCD, real life compulsions and Charlize Theron
This week on Who We Are Now Richard and Izzy are joined by one of their favourite guests from last season, anxiety therapist Josh Fletcher to answer the question, can you be a little bit 'OCD'?. Richard and Izzy will be the first to admit that they've thrown around the phrase 'that's a bit OCD around', and they know it's probably not quite right. As someone who's experienced obsessive compulsive disorder and now helps his clients recover, Josh is in the unique position of both experiencing and mastering his OCD behaviours. In this episode, he unpacks the reality that you can't be a 'little bit OCD' as he exposes the harsh realities of life with obsessive compulsive disorder.Listen on Global Player to hear the next episode a whole day earlier than anywhere else.
