Podcast Host's Unconventional OCD Treatment Goes Viral

In a candid video shared on social media, Chloe, host of the Talking to Tequila podcast, revealed her unusual technique for managing obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Instead of the commonly recommended positive self-talk, Chloe uses direct and sometimes harsh language to confront her intrusive thoughts. "Sometimes I have to talk to myself like that," she said, referring to her use of strong language. This approach, she explains, is highly effective for her in managing her symptoms. Her video has garnered significant attention online, sparking a conversation about the diverse ways individuals cope with mental health challenges. The video's success underscores the importance of finding personalized strategies for managing OCD and other mental health conditions. It also highlights the need for open conversations about mental health, even when those conversations involve less conventional approaches.
