Welcome to the show, Hannah. Thank you. Thank you for having me. Yeah, it's good to have you on. Of course, you are a therapist, but first we're going to hear your OCD story.

So it'll be good to hear that in as little as much detail as you want to give.

Yeah, so I think that I was not diagnosed with OCD until I was about 17,

but that's because I didn't go to a psychiatrist
