- 0:36Speaker 1: I was listening to your podcast where you're talking about
- 0:39Speaker 1: how you were like about your dark sauce you'd seen
- 0:42Speaker 1: after a really happy time. I think it's healthy intrusive thoughts,
- 0:45Speaker 1: which is a symptom about CD, which it kind of
- 0:47Speaker 1: seems like you have based on like routines and superstitious
- 0:51Speaker 1: and stuff, but it's super common. I get them sometimes.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Are you a therapist or a psychiatrist?
- 0:57Speaker 1: No? But I have OCD oh, like what kind.
- 0:59Speaker 3: Of oc like, walk me through, what's your OCD.
- 1:02Speaker 1: I have pure o OCD, which is just the absessment part.
- 1:05Speaker 1: So I have like obsessive thoughts. I don't have like
- 1:07Speaker 1: the like compulsion like number saying. But yeah, I'll be
- 1:12Speaker 1: like just with my daughter, and then I'll be like,
- 1:13Speaker 1: what if a car fally ran into her? And it's
- 1:16Speaker 1: you know, as long as it's not super disturbing, it's not.
- 1:18Speaker 1: It's like manageable. But it just reminded me of that.
- 1:21Speaker 3: You know what I did this morning on the way in.
- 1:23Speaker 2: I have all my rituals and I have a certain
- 1:25Speaker 2: set of numbers that I say out loud. And I
- 1:28Speaker 2: said to myself today my wife is traveling and we're
- 1:32Speaker 2: in a different time zone, and I thought, I'm going
- 1:34Speaker 2: to say my numbers, and if she calls me while
- 1:37Speaker 2: I'm saying my number, like my numbers have to be
- 1:39Speaker 2: said in order, in total silence, and if she calls me,
- 1:43Speaker 2: someone in my family is going to die.
- 1:49Speaker 3: She didn't call me, sound was like, oh my goodness.
- 1:51Speaker 2: But sometimes I'll do that all the way and be
- 1:53Speaker 2: like if if I'm reading my number, if I'm saying
- 1:56Speaker 2: my numbers out loud, and I hear a horn honk,
- 1:58Speaker 2: or I hear something some something is going to happen,
- 2:01Speaker 2: But so far, everybody's good today. It sounds like you
- 2:04Speaker 2: have been to a therapist before.
- 2:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I take medicine for it and it helps a lot.
- 2:09Speaker 3: Really, what kind of medicine you take?
- 2:10Speaker 1: They take like emotion into lexctine, which helps my intrusive
- 2:14Speaker 1: thoughts or my obsessions.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Well, it's funny because you were talking about EU obtrusive thoughts,
- 2:19Speaker 2: and my obtrusive thoughts to you made you go, oh
- 2:21Speaker 2: my god, do you know what? Right that scares me?
- 2:29Speaker 3: Mallory? That means, yeah, you have what do you call
- 2:33Speaker 3: it O O CD.
- 2:34Speaker 1: It's called a pure oh of CD. So it's not
- 2:37Speaker 1: it's like different from if you have OCD or like
- 2:39Speaker 1: people that have like I need to do this a
- 2:41Speaker 1: certain amount of times. It's just like your obsessions. It's
- 2:44Speaker 1: the compulsion. So you, I like, will have an obsessive start,
- 2:48Speaker 1: like when I was tegnant that obsessed when I was
- 2:49Speaker 1: wrong with my baby and thinking about that thought was
- 2:52Speaker 1: going through with the compulsion rather than like yeah.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Is it always.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Uh no, most of the time, it's like kind of
- 3:03Speaker 1: it's like sure, that's annoying. But I haven't really thought
- 3:06Speaker 1: about it being positive.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking, like, uh, you're like, I'm gonna
- 3:09Speaker 2: have a peanut butter jelly sandwich day. It's gonna be delicious,
- 3:11Speaker 2: and you just think about that all day until you
- 3:13Speaker 2: have it.
- 3:13Speaker 3: Can it be a positive thing or is it always? It?
- 3:15Speaker 2: Can I if I don't, If I don't have a
- 3:19Speaker 2: peanut butter y so now which someone's.
- 3:20Speaker 3: Gonna die, it's not that drastic for me.
- 3:24Speaker 1: I need to have that now and then I just
- 3:27Speaker 1: think about it and thing about it. So I guess
- 3:29Speaker 1: that is the same.
- 3:30Speaker 2: I have self prescribed myself non medicine. Here's what I
- 3:33Speaker 2: do to battle that stuff is I say more times.
- 3:36Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever talked about this before.
- 3:38Speaker 2: More times I say out loud this phrase, something wonderful
- 3:42Speaker 2: is going to happen to me today. Something wonderful is
- 3:44Speaker 2: going to happen to me today. And I say it
- 3:46Speaker 2: over and over, and I say it, I look up
- 3:48Speaker 2: at the stars and I look at the moon that.
- 3:50Speaker 3: I say it on the way and I say when
- 3:51Speaker 3: I walk out of my car.
- 3:52Speaker 2: So whatever bad thoughts I have, I tell myself that's
- 3:54Speaker 2: going to outweigh and be more positive.
- 3:57Speaker 3: It destroys the negative by me saying the positive. So much.
- 4:02Speaker 1: With us for John John No, I yeah.
- 4:07Speaker 3: No, doctor's there yattles like doom and gloom.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Right, there's a lot of people that are very like

- 4:16Speaker 2: Mallory sometimes early night?
- 4:20Speaker 3: Yeah? Okay, well listen, good luck to you and thanks
- 4:23Speaker 3: for diagnosing me. You too. She's like, here's what I have.
- 4:29Speaker 3: Yours is worse.
- 4:31Speaker 2: I know, I know, but I've never I've never like, uh,
- 4:36Speaker 2: therapized that part of my body before, that part of
- 4:39Speaker 2: my brain.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Other parts I have, but not that. That's interesting to

- 4:47Speaker 3: Pure O O c D?
