  • Resumen

  • 306. The Truth of OCD: Therapist Alegra Kastens on Living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Therapist Alegra Kastens shares the truth about her lived experience with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) that is vital for all of us to understand. Detailing her own struggle, and work as an OCD specialist, Alegra helps demystify the relentless cycle of ego-dystonic, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and compulsions that define this often-misunderstood and under-diagnosed disorder – sharing why so many people have OCD and do not know it, and ways to support people with OCD without enabling and reinforcing the compulsions. CW: Discussion of intrusive sexual and violent thoughts as well as suicidal ideation. About Alegra: Alegra Kastens is a licensed therapist, OCD specialist, writer, and the founder of the Center for OCD, Anxiety, and Eating Disorders in New York City. Fueled by lived experience with a lesser-known manifestation of OCD, education and advocacy about OCD are at the forefront of her career.

You Are Not Your Thoughts

This podcast was revelatory. Informative, illuminating, clear. Alegra and Amanda were the perfect duo to put the spotlight on such a misunderstood condition. Thank you for presenting this topic on your podcast.

OCD with Alegra

I love this podcast, the issues that are brought to the surface are life events people normally do not want to talk about. I experienced OCD thoughts after having my child at 20 years old. I remember being so frightened of my thoughts after bringing my new born home, one day I sat outside my doctor’s office in my car and wouldn’t leave until he saw me. I am now 53 years old and two of my three children suffer with OCD thoughts. One child refuses medication and my other child takes meds and has a therapist. As a mother, I always feared that one of my children would suffer with compulsive thoughts, but having two children has been so heart breaking as I know their internal mental struggle. I have shared this podcast with both my children. Thank you for sharing WE CAN DO HARD THINGS.
