Howie Mandel returns to the Get to Know OCD podcast. He’s here to catch us up on his OCD journey — and yes, it’s a journey. Like so many people with OCD, his symptoms ebb and flow, sometimes quietly, sometimes in full view, including live television after being hypnotized (yes, really!). Howie’s back to revisit that moment and the countless others that slip past the casual viewer but shape his life in ways most never notice.

In this interview, Howie opens up about what living with OCD actually feels like when the cameras aren’t rolling: the calculations, the fear, the unpredictability, and the work it takes to keep moving through a world that doesn’t always understand what’s happening in his head. He and Dr. Patrick McGrath explore how he’s learned to navigate those spikes, what helps him stay grounded, and why speaking honestly about OCD still matters to him — not as a celebrity, but as someone who knows exactly what it’s like to fight a battle most people never see.
