The OCD Chronicles
OCD is a terrible, debilitating disorder. It’s also routinely misunderstood. The OCD Chronicles is a podcast about the people who’ve fought this horrible illness, and, despite their struggles, thrived. They’re stories that are inspiring, affirmative, uplifting, emotional and useful. They exist as a record of achievement. To educate. Perhaps even entertain. They’re stories about the lives that Obsessive Compulsive Disorder tried to extinguish.Your host is journalist James McMahon. His own journey with OCD is long and arduous - and it's far from over. Join him on a voyage of discovery as he attempts to make sense of what is wrong with his brain. Maybe even to find the peace that's alluded him for most of his life. It promises to be emotional.

Here's a fact about me. When I was a kid, all I wanted to do was draw cartoons. That's all I wanted to do when I grew up, and then somewhere along the line, I discovered journalism. I still doodle now and then, and so it's been exciting getting to know Jason Adam Katzenstein - an actual professional cartoonist! He draws for The New Yorker! And he's really nice!
On this episode of The OCD Chronicles we get deep into the weeds on many matters neurological, and discuss how Jason's not-too-long-released memoir Everything Is Emergency came to be. As ever, if you enjoy this episode, please do Rate, Review and Subscribe. It's a huge help!
