In this episode of the DiversityNL Podcast, we sit down with Jeremy Bennett, a writer and advocate, to discuss his journey with OCD and anxiety. Beginning with symptoms in grade 7, Jeremy shares how he struggled with obsessive behaviours and rituals, eventually discovering the term OCD through a magazine article. His story highlights the importance of seeking help and the profound impact of sharing personal experiences. As Jeremy talks about his transition from business presentations to speaking about mental health, he reveals how connecting with others who share similar struggles has been both challenging and empowering. This episode explores the power of vulnerability and the belief that sharing our stories can lead to greater understanding and support for those affected by mental health issues.
