If anyone had trouble with how fast she speaks I slowed playback speed to 0.75x and it was perfect.
i’m so glad they’re doing ted talks at high schools and i hope they start doing them everywhere! These kids need to learn about mental health and how to cope. I wish i learned about my anxiety as a high schooler.
The book from Dr Jeffrey Schwartz 'Brain Lock' has helped me greatly in starving the OCD monster. ERP therapy can help you take control over time as you realize you can ignore the compulsions and after time the anxiety will lessen greatly. Your mind is more powerful than your brain. The intrusive thoughts will be there but if you ignore the compulsions the thoughts will move on as your anxiety lessens and your brain unlocks. Starving the monster works.
The pictures of the brain that she shows in her presentation are from the study that Dr Jeffrey Schwartz conducted at UCLA in the earlier 2000's.
His book Brain Lock explains what is happening in the frontal cortex to cause those spikes on the MRI.
The best thing is that OCD can mostly be overcome by yourself armed with knowledge on how to proceed.
