In this episode Robert James explains existential OCD: how normal philosophical questions can become overwhelming obsessions that drive rumination, anxiety, and avoidance.
He shares personal experience and practical strategies—pausing instead of compulsively searching for certainty, allowing uncomfortable feelings, using real-life exposure, and refocusing on values—to reduce the power of these thoughts.
