Obsessed

Anyone watch this show on A & E? I am completely obsessed with it. I actually feel like I have had an epiphany as to what could be wrong with my brother. It is so hard to get him to leave the house. He cannot even make a phone call without feeling pushed over the edge. He only eats frozen foods and is convinced any fresh or restaurant food gives him food poisoning. He quits every job he gets and sleeps about 15 hours a day...maybe more. He cancels every doctors appointment he makes. I have always felt depression was paralyzing him, but I am starting to think he may have severe OCD that causes his anxiety. I don't know how to help him.

Re: Obsessed

  • Oh, and the show is called Obsessed. Just realized I didn't make that clear. I am obsessed with Obsessed. It's about OCD. It has the mainstream cleaning, counting, germaphobe stuff, but also some I have never heard of. Like the girl who would go crazy every time her mom made the "K" sound and she would have to shout out the noise. She was also repulsed by hands that were held softly or loosely. She wanted them to always be in fists.

  • I've watched a few episodes.  The lady that wears the clothes from her Dad's accident tripped me out.  I have mini OCD-isms, but wow, these things really cripple these peoples lives.......

  • They had an agoraphobic on Obsessed last night. I guess because of the obsessive thoughts involved. He was diagnosed with that as a teen. He got better after I pretty much forced him to move to Vegas with me, but then his symptoms returned here and he went home. I think it is beyond agoraphobia with him though. He is really upset I may move to California and keeps sending me texts about the Big One that is coming. He may never come visit me if I move there.

  • I am fascinated by it. They profile 2 people and do intensive therapy. Half the time the people quit. It is my favorite show right now.
