Stuart’s Inspiring OCD Camp
In early 2024, we had the pleasure of speaking with Stuart Ralph, the driving force behind The OCD Stories podcast. Cara, our Communications Manager, spoke with Stuart about the origins of his podcast, the reasons behind launching the UK’s first OCD Camp, and the roles that community and nature can play in OCD recovery.
Stuart’s podcast, The OCD Stories, has seen tremendous success, with over 400 episodes and 6 million listeners globally.
Stuart explains how The OCD Stories began as a collection of written stories, inspired by his own comfort in reading others’ experiences with OCD. At the time, he noticed there wasn’t a single place where all these personal stories were gathered together, so he wanted to create one. The podcast, launched in December 2015.
Recently, Stuart founded the first OCD camp in the UK in 2018. He talks about the camp and what led him to establish it.
