Obsessed was a reality television show that aired on A&E from 2009 to 2010. It was centered around individuals who were struggling with severe anxiety disorders, phobias, and other related mental health issues. The show followed the journey of these individuals as they learned to manage their conditions through therapy sessions with licensed clinical psychologist John Tsilimparis. Each episode featured two individuals who were struggling with different anxiety-related disorders, such as hoarding, OCD, and panic attacks.

John Tsilimparis, the lead psychologist, was known for his innovative approach to cognitive-behavioral therapy. He worked with the participants to help them identify the root causes of their anxiety and develop coping strategies to manage their symptoms. His approach was focused on empowering the participants and helping them take control of their lives.

In addition to therapy sessions, the show also featured Lainee Rhodes, an organizing expert who helped individuals struggling with hoarding disorders. She worked with the participants to teach them how to declutter and organize their homes, which helped reduce their anxiety levels and improve their overall quality of life.

Rick Rosner, a genius IQ holder who was known for appearing on other reality TV programs, also made appearances on the show. He shared his own experiences with anxiety and offered advice on how to overcome it.

Each episode of Obsessed was an emotional journey for both the participants and viewers. It was a raw and vulnerable look at the difficulties individuals faced when dealing with anxiety disorders. The participants shared their personal stories and fears, allowing viewers to gain a better understanding of the impact of anxiety disorders on one’s life.

Many of the participants were able to overcome their anxiety-related disorders and make significant changes in their lives, such as returning to work, starting new relationships, and pursuing their passions.

Obsessed was a groundbreaking show that shed light on the struggles faced by individuals dealing with anxiety disorders. It helped reduce the stigma associated with mental health issues and offered hope to those who felt alone in their struggles. The show’s innovative approach to therapy and organizing made it a unique and valuable addition to the reality TV landscape.
