When people think of OCD, they often picture neatness or handwashing—but untreated OCD can be so much more than that. From intrusive thoughts and moral anxiety to social withdrawal and time-consuming rituals, it can quietly erode your peace of mind. In this video, we explore the deeper realities of what untreated OCD does to your mental health—and why recognizing the signs can be life-changing. We're incredibly grateful to have BetterHelp as an affiliate partner, allowing us to keep creating meaningful content like this.
