She was six years old when the compulsions started — counting, checking, rituals she didn’t understand — all fueled by the fear that if she didn’t do them, something terrible would happen. It wasn’t until she was 19 that she finally realized what it all was: OCD.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode of the Get to know OCD podcast, Megan shares what it was like living nearly two decades without a diagnosis, how OCD convinced her she was broken, and what finally changed when she started Exposure and Response Prevention therapy. Her story is a powerful reminder that OCD can go unnoticed for years (decades, in her case) — but it’s never too late to get your life back.</p><p><br></p><p>Our NOCD therapists specialize in ERP, the OCD treatment that finally worked for Megan and thousands of others.
