Britain’s Most Extreme OCD Cases | Bedlam | Extraordinary People

This video covers key moments from Bedlam Anxiety, following James, Helen, and Aaron as they face contamination fears, harm obsessions, and compulsions. We look at how therapists use ERP and CBT to reduce reassurance, build tolerance for uncertainty, and help patients return to everyday life. With exclusive access to one of the UK's largest psychiatric institutions, Bedlam strips away the taboos to investigate the politics, economics and medical truth about modern mental health. With first-hand accounts by doctors and nurses on the frontline as well as unprecedented footage of cutting edge treatment, the series gets under the skin of sanity as never seen before uncovering the characters and personalities behind the stigma and statistics.
