Send us a text

Tap into Two Shrinks and A Mic as Dr. Andrew Rosen and Dr. David Gross break down the real difference between everyday obsessive habits and true obsessive compulsive disorder. They explain how traits become disorders, why the brain craves certainty, and how overthinking, hypervigilance, and catastrophic thinking can take over daily life. The doctors also explore free floating anxiety, the limits of reassurance, and why cognitive behavioral therapy is essential for treatment.

They share practical examples, common misconceptions, and guidance for loved ones trying to understand what OCD actually feels like. If you or someone you know struggles with worry, rituals, or the need for certainty, this conversation offers clarity and direction.
