Description

Triggered: A Memoir of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder by Fletcher Wortmann is a deeply personal and insightful exploration of one man's struggle with OCD. The author recounts his experiences with the condition, revealing the elaborate psychological rituals he constructed to cope with intrusive thoughts and apocalyptic nightmares. Wortmann's memoir takes an unflinching look at his life, including his eclectic education shaped by various cultural influences, from Shakespeare to Catholic mysticism. He also shares humorous anecdotes about relationships and sex, offering a unique perspective on these often-taboo topics. Through his story, Wortmann sheds light on the complexities of OCD and its intersections with faith and identity. This is a touching, triumphantly funny, and compulsively readable memoir that offers a fresh take on a condition affecting millions worldwide.
