Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a complex and often misunderstood mental health condition that affects a significant portion of the population. In this informative video, Dr. Lukin offers a detailed explanation of OCD, including its mechanisms and impact on those who struggle with it.

OCD is characterized by unwanted, intrusive thoughts that can cause significant distress. These thoughts often lead to compulsive behaviors, which are actions taken to alleviate the discomfort caused by the obsessions. Dr. Lukin breaks down the process of OCD into three distinct types of behaviors commonly observed in individuals dealing with this condition. He elaborates on how these behaviors manifest and the challenges they present in daily life.

This video is not only educational but also aims to dispel common misconceptions about OCD. It provides valuable insights into the nature of the disorder, differentiating between what OCD actually entails and the stereotypes often associated with it.
