Description

As part of our ongoing OCD Personal Story series, Carrie sits down with Amber Vetitoe who bravely shares her lifelong battle with undiagnosed OCD—from early childhood fears to the heavy weight of scrupulosity and health anxiety—and the healing journey that unfolded through faith, perseverance, and the right therapeutic support.


Episode Highlights: 

How OCD can go undiagnosed for years, masquerading as panic attacks, anxiety, or spiritual crises


The impact of childhood fears and how they can evolve into OCD themes in adulthood


Amber’s experience with scrupulosity and the fear-based view of God she once held


What perseverance looks like when therapy is hard, messy, and triggering


How I-CBT helped Amber identify her feared self and reframe her identity


The importance of finding the right therapist who meets you with understanding and skill
