The main purpose of the current study is to investigate a potential “obsession contagion”, in which a person with OCD might “catch” an obsession after being exposed to it. We hope that this research may help us better understand the potential for contagion in situations in which sharing obsessions occurs (e.g., online blogs, peer support groups, educational campaigns).https://www.anxietycanada.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/anxiety-canada-logo.png10801080
