In reality, we have to learn how to be in partnership with each other. Raskin: I think we are taught to believe by the media that "true love" means that when you meet the "right" person, they instantly understand all your wants and needs and you are attracted to them 24/7.
You discuss having an 'adult perspective on how healthy relationships work.' What does that look like? In this exclusive interview with Giddy, Raskin discussed relationship obsessive-compulsive disorder (ROCD), why a brand-new relationship shouldn't feel difficult, when to have "the talk" about your mental health with a new partner, and a healthy approach to sexual issues.Įditor's note: This interview has been edited for length and clarity. In addition to sharing her personal journey of dating while living with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), the pages of "Overthinking About You" contain valuable insight from clinical psychologists, a psychiatrist, a sexologist, relationship experts and real-life couples. She wants you to know you're not alone as you navigate romantic relationships and mental illness. Raskin co-hosts the long-running podcast " Just Between Us," runs the popular Emotional Support Lady Instagram account and is currently getting a graduate degree in psychology from Pepperdine University. "I have been guilty of every 'crazy girl' stereotype out there," writes Allison Raskin in the opening chapter of her deeply personal memoir and self-help guide, " Overthinking About You: Navigating Romantic Relationships When You Have Anxiety, OCD and/or Depression."
