The show about OCD and other, less scary monsters. In which we unpack how OCD feels, strategies that can help, and, because OCD is such a heavy topic, some fun stuff too.
Hi, I'm Leela. I have OCD and I want to talk about it! Each week, my sister Pri and I dive into one fun thing we're obsessed with, from pop-culture to trends to something we're reading/watching/listening to. Then we'll unpack a different aspect of OCD. We'll close out each episode by 'Drinking Tea with Monsters' where we'll tell you a story about a spooky supernatural haunted happening. Because nothing gets us out of our anxious brains like a good scare.
So to recap: pop-culture, OCD, ghosts! Join us for Drinking Tea with Monsters.

This week on Drinking Tea with Monsters, the podcast about OCD and other, less scary monsters, we're hearing the crunch of leaves, the pouring of pumpkin spice lattes, and the lalas of the Gilmore Girls (who saw the Emmys?!). We're ready for fall y'all!
Pri starts off our episode by sharing the cozy fall recipe she's been enjoying that's basically apple pie for breakfast!
Then, we take a look at the plusses and pitfalls of social media when you have OCD. From the knowledge sharing around mental health, to the triggers that can sneak up on you, to compulsive doomscrolling, social media can be a double edged sword. That's right, we're looking at you TikTok! We talk about how to develop a healthy relationship with the ever present pocket tools.
Finally, Leela takes us to a grocery store in a tiny village in a forrest in Norway to find out which ghosts reside there and what they get up to in their spare time.
Grab your blanket and a brew, because we're about to spill the tea on all things pop-culture, OCD, and ghosts.
Here's hoping your tea is hot, and your monsters are chill.
