This is the sixth episode of Mind ki Baat, a Newslaundry podcast with a neurodivergent host with a focus on the invisible epidemic of mental health issues in society today.
In this episode, we discuss Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, or OCD, a mental health condition that affects millions around the world. OCD is characterised by recurrent obsessions and compulsions. These significantly impact a person’s daily life, yet they’re often mocked for their compulsions by neurotypicals.
This episode features conversations with Manvi Tiwari, a lived experience expert and activist in OCD and anxiety, who sits on several advisory boards and councils. We also talk to Nipuna Singh, a forensic and counselling psychologist with over eight years of experience.
