3 Celebrities Who Changed How I See My OCD

Brenna Posey always thought she had a good grasp on her OCD, but everything shifted when she started hearing celebrities like Luke Combs, Nikki Glaser, and Ariana Grande open up about their own mental health struggles. Their stories weren’t just relatable — they were eye-opening. Luke talked about being consumed by intrusive thoughts even while performing on stage, Nikki shared how her OCD fed into an eating disorder, and Ariana described rituals that kept her trapped in a cycle. Hearing those raw, honest moments helped Brenna connect dots in her own experience that she hadn’t seen before.

In this video, Brenna reflects on the impact those stories had on her understanding of OCD and why celebrity voices can play a powerful role in breaking stigma. She explains how each of their perspectives helped her realize that OCD isn’t one-size-fits-all, and that even people at the top of their careers are navigating the same exhausting mental loops. Most of all, it reminded her — and now hopefully you — that struggling with OCD doesn’t mean you can’t live a full, meaningful life.
