What is Halloween like for someone with OCD? In this Free Me From OCD podcast episode, we take a closer look at Halloween—a holiday celebrated for its thrills and chills, yet one that can be particularly challenging for those dealing with OCD. We’ll dive into three key questions:

1. Why is Halloween so much fun for many?

2. Why isn’t Halloween as enjoyable for people with OCD?

3. How can someone manage OCD effectively during this spooky season?

For those interested in the psychology behind Halloween’s appeal, check out the Harvard Business Review article, The Psychology Behind Why We Love (or Hate) Horror.

Whether Halloween fills you with excitement or dread, tune in to gain insight, understanding, and strategies for navigating it with confidence.
