One thing sufferers of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder tend to agree upon is that intuition vs. fear is virtually indistinguishable. How can we know if our obsessive intrusive thoughts are coming from an intentional place inside of us or are simply the product of meaningless pathology and faulty brain circuitry? Yet, in her clinical treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Stamatina Daniilidis knew her intuition was incontestable: that the intrusive thoughts she couldn’t shake were indeed coming from her. More specifically, her unconscious. This realization in her journey terrified her the most yet allowed her to access a key to inner liberation. Through learning to relate to her own OCD as a vehicle through which to practice unconditional self-acceptance - in getting symbolically acquainted with the darkest recesses of her psyche - Stamatina has learned to access a window of gentleness, forgiveness, and unparalleled depth within herself… where every part of her has a seat at the table. In SPLIT ENDS, she challenges the blindspots of clinical therapy. She takes readers through her painstakingly humbling journey of over 15 years with this dis-order wherein she experiences devastations and revelations and hopes to serve as a mirror to others carrying a similar cross.
