“If you're struggling with something, you can get help. It doesn't need to be a permanent state. You can take your life back, there are avenues you can go.”
Imagine spending over two decades mastering a career, only to realize later in life that a hidden challenge was shaping your every move. That's the story of Adam Garr, a former course superintendent who joins Stuart Butler on 'Henry Weston's Old Mate' to discuss his life with OCD. Adam takes us through his extensive career in turf management and reveals how a late diagnosis of OCD helped him make sense of past anxieties and struggles.
