Actress Sarah Jeffery Opens Up About Living With OCD

Sarah Jeffery’s acting career has spanned hit shows and films like Charmed and Descendants. On screen, she looked fearless. But behind that was a mind that wouldn’t stop asking, what if I forget how to act? what if I freeze? Sarah’s OCD twisted her love of acting into fear, making her question her abilities and even her place in the industry.


In this interview, Sarah shares what that experience was really like — the pressure, the doubt, and the slow process of learning to perform without perfection. It’s a side of her story that’s rarely seen, one that shows how even in the spotlight, OCD can quietly take center stage.
