Obsessed takes viewers on a heart-wrenching journey inside the minds and lives of everyday Americans whose anxieties have manifested into something they can no longer control. From OCD to agoraphobia and germophobia, the series documents people traumatized by their disorders, as well as their courageous attempts to overcome them. With the help of highly trained therapists who use desensitization and exposure therapy, patients are increasingly exposed to what causes their anxiety until the feelings begin to fade. Season 2 of Obsessed features some of the most compelling stories to date including a father of two whose overwhelming obsession with odd numbers has left him jobless and unable to function on odd-numbered days; a recovered alcoholic whose fear of contamination is so extreme that he washes his hands up to 150 times a day and lives in fear that another alcoholic will contaminate him and cause him to return to drinking; and a young budding artist who believes that her checking, tapping and counting rituals are currently keeping her mother from dying of cancer.
