I am honoured to be joined today by Professor David Veale, a consultant psychiatrist in London who specialises in obsessive compulsive disorder. As you might already know, I have frustratingly suffered from this mental health condition for many years now, but it always amazes me how little people actually know about it. The aim of this episode is to ask Professor Veale the questions you might have never had the opportunity to ask and to educate those of you who might want to know more about the condition and how you might be able to treat it. So whether it's beneficial for you or for a friend, I hope that this episode with Professor David Veale helps put OCD into simple terms.
