Chrissie Hodges: Advocating for taboo OCD themes (#480)
Manage episode 475444157 series 2538165
In episode 480 I chat with Chrissie Hodges. Chrissie is a Peer Support specialist, founder of OCD Gamechangers, and Author of ‘Pure OCD: The Invisible Side of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder’. Chrissie was awarded the hero award at the 24th IOCDF conference in San Fran.
We talk advocacy, censorship, stigma, the need for advocates to talk about all experiences of OCD to normalise all experiences including taboo themes, the difficulties of opening up, how cancel culture may have hindered advocacy, encouragement to share the whole picture of OCD, the topic of advocacy or influencer, how to handle criticism online, having an advocacy mission statement, and much more.
