Cody Fournier was serving in the military when OCD began to consume his thoughts. The taboo thoughts were intense and confusing, but what scared him just as much was the idea of anyone finding out. In that environment, where strength and reliability matter so much, he worried that admitting what he was going through could change how people saw him — or even threaten the career he had worked hard for. So instead of talking about it, he kept it hidden and tried to push through on his own.
In this episode, Cody looks back on that time and shares what it was like carrying OCD in silence while serving. He also talks about what happened when he finally got the right help, and how that experience eventually led him to become a licensed therapist at NOCD, where he now helps others navigate the same disorder he once struggled with himself.
