It has been 30 years of suffering in silence that I can finally put the healing in motion. Words can not express my gratitude, thank you.
i am so sorry to hear of your pain. I think i am so grateful to be born in the age of social media, videos like this really help reduce anxiety and points me in the right direction.
Same here, been suffering about 30 years believing i was´n normal...
@@RafaelNaletto ... of corse you’re normal! We just lack confidence in ourselves and we look to others to validate us.
I'm sorry, but can u tell what type of symptoms or problem u hv?
haven’t watched the entire video yet but i watched a clip and when he said that the thoughts i have are the farthest thing from my personality, i cried. those words just saved me from myself.i hate my brain for its fucked functions, not me. my thoughts are not me. how i feel is not how i really really feel. ocd tries to kill me but i’m still here praying maybe i won’t have to be scared of my brain one day.
How are you doing now?
Did u recover?? If u done pls let me know evn I'm faceing same
I myself have been experiencing this reality for 30 years. 30 years of feeling the struggle. The more talk about our issues, and the more you understand you are not alone... The more you can begin to heal. Stay strong and never give up, we share the same issue, but I can tell you there is hope.
woodey028 ... I’m 36... we are in this struggle together.
@@woodey028 ty so much for your support
Amazing that someone who doesnt suffer from the condition can have such intimate knowledge of the subjective experience of others. Unfortunately, this is not the case with MOST specialists. He is able to go beyond his own experience, to reach through language and intuition the subject, rather than simply rearranging the proportions of his own experience. A special person, really. He makes it feel like most specialists in this field should have been accountants or something.
That’s exactly what I was thinking! It must come from so much experiences and he’s so brilliant
He is the most insightful voice I've ever heard on OCD.
No wonder he's such a pioneer in the field, the guy is obviously a genius.
Also, Johns Hopkins is an amazing institution in so many fields, and when it comes to the human mind, probably the leading one in the world.
He didn't do his PhD there, but I am not at all surprised he said that was where he learned how to be a scientist.
@@alexlarsen6413
I agree with you 💯 👍🏻
Because he gathered a group of sufferers and took the time to listen to them speak about their experiences.
He must be the best OCD expert..He deserve a BIG recognition for his pioneering works.
Sadiq Hussain ... every time I’m having a hard time with OCD, I look at his video. It gives me sooo much peace.
Please also look at this short 15 minute video which highlights OCD and ERP misconceptions.

Why? He seems like a dickhead
Phantom Worral you obviously have no clue .
@@KAHHHH8548 Fck off...You'd appreciate him only when you get inflicted by this OCD. I wouldn't have wished this even for my worst enemy though.
Everyone who suffers with OCD needs to see this video. The amount of relief it gives me and just understanding of whats going on instantly seperates me from my theme.
Great work!
You cannot outlogic Ocd - One of the most important things I learned. What's really frustrating is that since its chronic it can really be difficult to not fall into the trap of reassuring or ruminating over time because feeling significantly better does not happen over night
Dr. Phillipson: "My answer to them won't help them in any way." Me: Exactly! It's really not the experience of the thought that's the problem, it's the anxiety response. It's learning to hear the thought and tolerate the anxiety response w/o attending to it that helps. OCD isn't about the inability to reason things out, it's about this misfiring in the brain which makes the obsession seem like such an emergency.
This is SO important.
Dr jeffrey schwartz explaint it very well.
Thank you highlight the key points as what Mr Phillipson said,I'm OCD and suffering around 6-7 years...anyway OCD is so tough and badly issue, Hopefully I can have a new stat as I will do it according to the solutions on these youtuber.
Thank you for sharing with me I really like that can you share some of me what you had to do to get through it did you recover from it just so you can recover from these things have you been recovery for 34 years without a drink I never thought I'd go through this this is terrible it feels like I'm going to a lot of trauma grief and just a lot of stuff that's happened in my past is all eating at me is that why OCD is getting at me now I don't know what's going on here scary though

We are WAY behind in the UK when it comes to understanding and treating "pure OCD".
right?! it makes me so frustrated there's not a single ERP specialist close to where i live :(
Same in here Finland.
Dr. Phillipson- and the interviewer did a great job of explaining the disorder of OCD. I believe that Dr. Phillipson- will be known as a historic figure in the treatment of all OCD issues. This show is by far the way to educate someone or a family member of the disorder. Thank you very much for freeing my own Brain from this biological problem of the mind.
+MultiMagnumforce thanks for the support! Dr. Phillipson is great and we are lucky to have worked with him. We are so happy to hear that you find the videos helpful!
MultiMagnumforce
The first video that actually talks about OCD the way i have and feel it.
Doctor, thank you for your life dedication to OCD suffers.
This is the most important TH-cam clip I have ever watched. Dr Phillipson if you are ever in London it would be my honour to take you to dinner.
Sucks that doctors with his knowledge charge a ridiculous sum of money in order to help people. I tried reaching out to his team and saw the prices and it broke my heart.
The world doesn't give a shit about (mental disorders)
Same. Very unaffordable
I hate violent intrusive thoughts. It's such a scary feeling! This video is amazing & makes me feel a bit at ease thank you.
My ocd makes me emotionally unstable and also makes my head hurt :(
I’m so sorry you’re going through this. May Jesus bless and comfort you. Hugs!
when he talks about people who were misdiagnosed, i become so grateful to live in todays world. TH-cam channels like this help so many people, i was scrolling through a feed on instagram a long time ago and my symptoms were listed on an anxiety page. I will now seek professional help, but with people like this being able to speak to millions around the world, this sends help without limit. Thank you guys so much
How did the help go?
I think Steven Phillipson is the best in OCD - he understands the condition better than anyone - and I have learned a lot about my OCD based on his work - his work makes me feel that everything is going to be okay
How did you contact Dr. Phillipson? I’m not from USA but I would love to talk to him, do u think is there any way?
Extraordinary people suffers from ocd and intrusive thoughts

@@oscarsantos2240 yes
@@oscarsantos2240 how come? Is there any testament u can proof wid?
Imagine having OCD and also being hazed and harassed by the people around you whom are purposely presenting stimuli just to trigger you into an OCD loop (episode). Imagine this and imagine your EEG is being read and responded to by those around you. Everyday all day, week after week, year after year.
I know how you feel
Im getting better with my ocd. But I feel so angry and hurt for my fellow ocd sufferers💔💔😭😭 I wish yall get better and stay okay. You don’t deseve it
🧠 Buspirone/Esketamine are helpful if their OCD getting worse. OCD is not funny ! It is the mental pain !
When you throw a spiritual aspect on it, its a lot harder for an ocd sufferer to get better because they may feel evil spirits are holding them hostage
I grew up as a Christian and still am. Im only 17 and was born into Christianity. But once I started to notice that i had contamination ocd which was back in 8th grade i started to really drift away from God. Even now as I am typing this I feel like I dont want to serve anymore because this OCD that i have is distributing everything. My parents know that i have Contamination OCD since I was diagnosed with it when I went to my pediatrician back before covid started. But what they dont know is that i dont want to serve God right now. They still think I love serving him but i don't. Even worse the therapist that i have is also coincidentally a christian too. So im lying to both my parents and my therapist whenver I talk to them. I blame ocd for drifting me away from God. Because I know that I still want to serve him but just not right now. Im going to be 18 and have to be an adult and that's where I feel like I dont have to go to church anymore and that I get to say that i want medication. My parents say i dont need medication because i just need to pray and really want to get rid of it and let God handle it. But like I said, I dont want anything to do with God right now. It just so stressful because my parents yell at me all the time for my compulsion, and now I need to grow up also and take care of myself and I cant tell them that I dont want to be a Christian right now because i am still living under there roof and have to be a Christian otherwise i feep like they will kick me out and i don't know how to take care of myself yet. I also dont want to dissapoint my therapist by saying i dont want to serve God becuase i have already told her thag I love serving God and that he can get rid of this OCD
@@johnwick7583 I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I’m a Christian and an OCD sufferer. Your parents seem like they really don’t understand, and that’s makes things so much harder. Please know though that the demanding, angry voices are sometimes people, often OCD, but that Jesus loves you so much. Don’t try to perform or accomplish for God, when you think of him just think of him as your shepherd. OCD lies to us about how God sees us. Through Jesus, he sees us with love and grace. The OCD twists things. So don’t through out God with the OCD. You don’t have to let go of God - just let go of your expectation that God needs more “work” from you. I know that’s so so so hard though. I struggle with that so much too. Love to you. May Christ’s peace be with you.
thank you so much for this, i love learning about it
Thank you very much for doing this.
Great interview. Thank you
Extremely powerful video for me. Truly life-changing. Thank you.
What caN I say . this man really understand what's going on in our minds
Thank you for this video means alot I'm a sufferer
A very good saucer of information on ocd and pure o. Really helpful. Thank you.
Great video. Man came in with the facts straight up down side to side. Nice
Thank You guys! God bless You!
This is just so brilliant
This is something I never thought about... I will continue learning about these concepts.
Im so glad i found this Video it really gives me another perspective on my ocd
Amazing video. Amazing. I love this guy.
Thanks for sharing! I was intrigued by Dr. Phillipson's OCD discussion filmed in the early 90s and posted some years ago on TH-cam. He has an exceptional acumen for this subject. Great to see more recent work from him here!
This is a great video. Soo glad I came across it on my search. He’s a great guy and very well educated and knowledgeable about this awful OCD. I feel so much better for watching this. I’m a guy who’s suffered from this condition since I was a child of 12.
Thank you so much for this. Almost in tears being able to listen in words exactly what is going on in my head.
Thank You so much. Dr Steven
One of the best interviews I've seen in quite a while, Dr. Phillipson definitely seems to have the best grasp of the disorder over anyone else I've seen so far.
Dr. Steven Philippson is the type of therapist you are glad to have as an Affected
This interview helped me more than any self help video I watched on TH-cam for ocd
probably the most insightful. articulate. helpful ocd post I have ever seen. described me to perfection.. also great to show to family and friends to truly explain ocd.
Aaron, thank you So much. I thought I was the only one! I was too ashamed and horrified to ever tell anyone about my thoughts. To have this understanding, and know that there is treatment is such a relief...
So well said.
This video was a turning point in my life. Thank you Dr Phillipson
I am going through a self healing phase and this video helped me clarify things in a new light. Thank you! ❤
thank you sir i appreciate it 🥇
This guy is the best around
Fruitful talk.
Kudos to the interviewer he really asked amazing questions and let DR Philipson take his time at answering thoroughly every question
Thank you very much for this highly educational video! Very informative and thorough explained what OCD is really like by elaborating all the aspects and sub types. Videos like this should be promoted more, for the purpose of debunking the myth of OCD, to educate the general audience and those that suffer to have the right kind of support!
Thank you so much this helped me
This is so informative and truthful. I've been struggling since 2007 with Harm OCD, especially after having children and my father passing in December 2018, and I definitely have mental rituals (pure-O). I go months feeling well, and then fall back down for a few weeks. But all I can say is that the "ease" during my good points are nothing short of amazing and something I look forward to. And I've realized that when there's something to look forward to, I tend to do better.
But it's still very, very hard. Going through a lapse right now but I know there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you guys. The information is really helpful. 🙏🙏🙏
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank YOU DR 🙏
I need this video around me for the rest of my life! ❤
Me too. I’m struggling here...
Dr. Phillipson hit the hammer on the nail with this one. Many OCD sufferers will go out of their way to prove they don't actually have what their though intrusions say. This can become objective dysfunctional in social functioning
I. LOVE. THIS. VIDEO.
This is honestly so helpful. Thank you both Aaron and Dr. Phillipson. The first step is absolutely understanding that OCD is a malfunction of an anxiety response. This fact in and of itself helps me see clearer and feel lighter in my spirit. Let's all keep raising awareness. This is what we need! Thank you
I agree! This man has helped me more than anyone has. I have never been sure that anyone truly understood me. But it was as if he said many of the things he did, because he learned it all from having been my doctor. Hehe.
I truly did learn sooooo much from him. So, thanks to him. I feel much better now. This was 45 minutes of greatness.
very nice and inspiring. thank you doctor phillipson you shed a lot of light on me and i been suffering with ocd since i was a child and i am now 44. i wish i could have you as a doctor.
"OCD is an anxiety disorder" in my own experience I agree 100%. Many times when I told my brain to shut up or had nothing to worry about. I could feel anxiety in my chest...over nothing. Literally nothing. It's like my body or brain or whatever tf it is would just get anxious and then find shit to worry about. It's really stupid. Alan Watts said the same thing, people who worry about different things all day are just worriers. They worry about worrying and worry becomes so natural they just find anything to worry about. Be aware of your compulsions and the underlying anxiety. If I can beat OCD so can you. I had HOCD, ROCD, Existential OCD, and other OCD'S that aren't even listed here. It's an anxious thing, it's an obsession thing (ROCD is trickier than the others tho). But yea to anybody out there struggling, you'll be fine, trust me. I had some really fucking bad OCD's where one just replaced another but I'm doing SO MUCH better now. Seperate yourself from your thoughts, and feelings. Is Buddhism it's called observing the Ego. Look into that but don't get what I call Observing-OCD. Good luck people don't give up that's the worst thing you can actually do. The hottest flames forge the strongest metals ♥️♥️.

Thank you very much this has been very informative, great advice on how to treat an extremely devastating condition. I'm grateful for your shared knowledge.
You are very welcome :)
Really valuable video
Thanks. Another helpful resource is that book "30 Days to Stop Obsessing" by Harper Daniels.
this guy does know his stuff
he has a great understanding of this disabling disorder, very insightfull talk thanks :)
Dr. Phillipson is a great resource and we are so happy that you found this video helpful :)
MadeOfMillions any way we can contact him for therapy on skype ?
I gained so much clarity from this video. My mom suffered from religion subset OCD, however because she was in China, she was diagnosed as delusional and put on multiple medications, which eventually led to her suicide. After that, I suffered ptsd but can never explain my intrusive thoughts of harm ocd. With more and more respect toward the creativity of my brain, I gained such strong mindfulness skills and almost did exposure therapy to myself without even knowing what it was! I heard of ERP, but because it’s associated with OCD, I never looked into because I was never diagnosed with that, or understood my mom’s symptoms. This video answered so much of my questions.
So sorry to hear about your mom! May she rest in peace and may your condition get better with each day passing! Bless you
I just came from your website and its very beautiful and well made!!! (: new sub (:
what is their website?
really great interview. it has helped me a lot in gaining clarity about my ocd as well as has shown me a clear and sure path to oceecome this anxiety disorder.
We are so happy to hear that! Keep fighting and focusing on how you cope with your anxiety. And remember, it's okay to reach out to us or others for support and information :)
I am myself suffering from it for 15 yrs and this video has clarified some of my doubts
I recommend checking his website ocdonline.com and reading the articles "Choice" and "Rethinking the Unthinkable", that's really eye-opening and clarifies so much more the condition!
“Creative association” is a really good description for a lot of my intrusive thoughts. Though I would probably call them “horrific associations” rather than creative lol
lG he sells ketamine he helped me out with my ocd ,anxiety, depression ,bpd and adhd
Nobody knows much better about ocd than dr phillipson
THANK u!
Reading "Thinking the unthinkable" was an absolute revolution for me. It's so true, and I've come to understand that there isn't any real distinction between a regular thought and an "intrusive" thought, there is just an anxiety response to any thought that is perceived as catastrophic - ie it needs to be resolved/neutralised, when in fact it's all just regular thinking. Understanding this has been huge for me, and so incredibly helpful, it stops the vicious cycle from even ingraining itself in the first place. Thanks for uploading this, guys. :)
OMG, I’m shook at how well he knows OCD, it’s just incredible the level of knowledge he has. I’m so grateful I found him.
lG he sells ketamine he helped me out with my ocd ,anxiety, depression ,bpd and adhd
The worst thing about having OCD is to be rejected and alienated by your own family ...they threw me out of the house and called me freak...😓
How are you now?
Muchas gracias
I really need to see this guy 20 yr sufferer here...finally ready to blame it for being at rock bottom of my life
Did you see him?
he is my hero!
so happy to find him
🙏
🙏
Dr. Philipson is always so damn on point. Yes, Kids have more of a pure O type of OCD. Yes, they all have OCD-ish tendencies. And As a long Time sufferer I need him in my closet to slap me out of depression and do ERP with me because in my country there's no OCD specialist. And sufferers need the therm pure O.
This was such an amazing video. Breakthrough!! Every therapist should study this video. God bless us all on our journey. Where is this man located?? Does anyone know how to reach him?
Finally, a genuine educational content about OCD. Mr. Philipson is a real deep learner of his field and bringing real and practical solutions(that's what successful people do exactly) to the OCD cases through face to face and online interaction. Changing life's for good.
We are what we do...
Not what we think. 🖖
Stay strong 💪😎
Realmente me ayudado bastante hoy tengo 25 año y soy de las personas que se trauma mucho con las cosas cotidianas que me pasan, hoy me paso pensando en un chico que me gusta y que el ni en su mundo me hace, son pensamientos que me vienen a la mente durante todo el resto del dia y eso es lo que me pasaba cuando era adolescente me paso lo mismo, dure años en la secundaria ni siquiera aprendia nada en la escuela por pensamientos como estos pensando todo el tiempo en lo mismo de igual manera en la prepa, pero me doy cuenta que entre mas tratas de bloquearlos mas vuelven, la ansiedad las palpitaciones y el nervisismo siguen ahi entre mas tratas de quitarlo mas estan ahi mas se aferran terminan por agotarte enfadarte y ponerte de mal humor por que no puedes controlarlos.
As a Christian it bothers me that ‘praying’ is seen as something negative in relation to OCD. Yes I understand it can be seen as a reassurance, however it is natural for Christians to pray & I’m sure there are a lot of Christians suffering from OCD.
As a christian, I can see how a ritualistic way of praying could be unhelpful. I think praying is a good thing to do in regards to OCD, but OCD can manifest in a way that looks like praying, but really isn't. An obvious example would be repeating the same words over and over[but I don't think even that is always a bad thing, it depends]. In my own experience, I've often blurted out the simple prayer "God help me" in response to intrusive thoughts and sometimes it is more of a reflex/habit than a prayer since I do so maybe a few times day. I think part of this is influenced by a subtly OCD way of thinking, but I've gotten a lot of peace about my OCD by just chilling out and not worrying about my thoughts, recognizing that they are not sinful in themselves, recognizing that they don't accurately reflect my mental health or what sort of person I am. I never confess my intrusive thoughts as if they were sins, I treat them as off-putting inconveniences or surprises and nothing more. My "God help me" does not mean "God forgive me" nor "God fix me", I think it is gnerally my way of asking "Please purge this unpleasant image from my mind". I think that it is a less than ideal approach on my part, since it is possibly driven by my OCD to some degree, but it doesn't affect me very much because I am at peace with it and I know that God doesn't condemn me for my thoughts and that He doesn't hold it against me if some of my prayers are actually OCD rituals. It is also misguided if we want to never have intrusive thoughts, it is better to just make our peace with them under the understanding that they are harmless. Being a perfectionist about it and anylyzing whether it is real prayer or OCD ritual would be counterproductive. So we can fool ourselves and be counterproductive by spiritualizing our OCD mental compulsions, but I believe that prayer is generally a good idea despite the potential for OCD to manifest in that way. I think that christians with OCD should pray without worrying about these things, it is okay with me if some of my "God help me"s are reflexive or impulsive, it would be counterproductive to mentally "check" whether it was a compulsive prayer, we should understand that God is relaxed about these things and so we are free not to worry about them, I am sure that God is just glad when we are asking and happy to help.
Such an amazing conversation. So so helpful! Thank You to the interviewer for asking the right questions firstly and also for the amazing answers given from Dr. Phillipson 😊
6:37 ... the "intrusive thoughts existed in their own mind and the rituals often existed in the form of thinking." Yep, sounds familiar.
Superb Dr Phillipson, very, very knowledgeable re how debilitating OCD can be for suffers! The term OCD is bandied about ( even fashionable to say it seems !!!) so much by people who think they have OCD? These people do not have a clue what they are talking about!!!
i have had very little treatment for my thoughts, last time i heard it was cognetive therapy , now i hear its" erp.." i suppose its important to keep informed of the latest treatment... this guy is so compassionate, i wish he was my therapist.
reassurance is bad because it might get rid of that thought but then like 3 more bad thoughts sprout from the aftermath of the first thought and if you reassure those thoughts now there's 9 bad thoughts and so on. at least this is how I experienced it
yes. reassurance also tells your brain that the thought you needed reassurance about WAS scary, and did need that reassurance. it just feeds the cycle
Intrusive thoughts seem to be as a result of experiences people have in their past that they don't like. Avoiding perverted ideas is key. I think. From my experience with these kinds of thoughts.
Avoiding the things that cause you anxiety will only make ocd worse
I agree, I think for me it's connected with traumatic experiences, ptsd which turned into Pure O
@@gabrielsimbachosenboxing6734 ... 100% I agree with you. I had a traumatic experience and my ocd evolves around it.
He looks like Duncan Ballantyne who is a wealthy Scottish entrepreneur & was in Dragons Den UK 🇬🇧
I suffer from PureO and Rituals...I am beating the rituals but the intrusive thoughts are growing 10 fold.
Really wonderful video and I thank you so much for posting this. However I have a question. Dr. Steven frequently says that cognitive therapy is not a good therapy for OCD however from what I've read, I thought that ERP was a branch of CBT, often I have seen it called CBT-ERP. Is Dr. Steven talking about something else?
Cognitive therapy is different from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT is also behavioral not just analysis based
