You could so easily burn down something if you leave the stove on.
As for whether shes taking medication for the disorder, Seyfried said, Yeah.
Im on Lexapro, and Ill never get off of it.

Ive been on it since I was 19, so 11 years.
Im on the lowest dose.
I dont see the point of getting off of it.

Whether its placebo or not, I dont want to risk it.
And what are you fighting against?
Just the stigma of using a tool?

Instead, Seyfried argued, It should be taken as seriously as anything else.
You dont see the mental illness: Its not a mass; its not a cyst.
Why do you’re gonna wanna prove it?
If you’re free to treat it, you treat it.
Seyfried added that at first, she believed her mental illness was manifesting itself physically.
This is not the first time Seyfried has spoken about her struggles with OCD, and her mental health.
She admitted to seeing a psychologist to help her overcome stage fright.
So I have been working through it.
Im terrified, but this is exactly what I wanted.
I think OCD is a part of me that protects me.
Its also the part of me that I use in my job, in a positive way.
I cant overcome it.
