Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Dr Scott Blair-West

Today on the show we interviewed Dr Scott Blair-West, a consultant psychiatrist who specialises in anxiety disorders. We discussed what Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is, how it presents itself and the interventions available for those affected by it. We also talked a little bit about the stigma that surrounds OCD and how it can negatively affect individuals.
