Hey guys and welcome to episode 230 of the Ocede stories

com podcast in this episode I chat with Nora Shala Wei Carpenter

who is kindly agreed to share her story with us.

So in the episode we talk about her Ocid story,

a trauma she experienced, going through OCD and pregnancy,

so we go into detail of what it was like for having OCD while she was pregnant.

We talk about her book The Edge of Anything, which I ended up reading after recording

this episode. It's a fiction and I think she did a very good job of capturing what ICD was like.

So if you're into fiction, then maybe check it out.

The link will be in the show notes to her book.

But she talks about that in detail.

She talks about the characters in the book, why she did it and how she tried to be as accurate as possible.

We talked about her therapy journey, medication, how her partner held her accountable with therapy homework, feeling understood in therapy,

and how what she learned about anxiety through therapy helped her in parenting her children,

words of hope, and much, much more.

So thank you as always to you guys for listening and to Nora for sharing her story and talking

about her book.
