Episode 6: Tips For Sharing Your OCD And How To Begin Healing

"If God can heal mental illness, then why do I still suffer with OCD?"It's the age-old question of why bad things happen in a world created by a good God. Even if you aren't a religious person, this question has probably plagued you, as well. And if you ARE a religious person, it has likely been even more frustrating.In this episode of The Sooo OCD Podcast, I'll attempt to tackle this question with my own thoughts on the nature of God, sin, mental illness, and healing. There is a lot more to say on the subject and so much I didn't cover. But I think it's a starting point for a broader conversation about the nature of OCD and our approach to it.I'd love to hear your feedback on this episode!

Episode 5: If God Can Heal Mental Illness, Why Do I Still Have OCD?

What is it like to live with OCD every day? In this episode, I walk you through a typical day in the life of having Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. For some, a typical day is filled with a variety of compulsions and high-intensity fears. For others, a typical day can be much less intensive. I often fall into the latter category because my intrusive thoughts are often only triggered by very specific things, which is why on this particular episode you'll hear me talk more about those triggers rather than how often I'm performing compulsions.

Episode 1: What It's Like To Be Sooo OCD

This podcast gave words to my OCD that I couldn’t find on my own. After listening (weeping) through the first few episodes I had my husband listen and this pod was truly what lead to him understanding and empathizing with my intrusive thoughts. Yes, as Wendi shares her story she also talks about Jesus because he is a huge part of her story, and the truth of the gospel is our only source of hope in this life. Gimme Jesus over self-help any day. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you Wendi for leaning into this difficult calling and providing relief and hope for those of us with OCD!

The 🐐

I love this pod.  It’s very well produced, calm, and measured.  I didn’t realize it was religious.  For me (not religious), the religious talk added color but didn’t detract from the over all content.  But do be advised that there’s a lot of Jesus.

Well produced; very religious
