Maria Bamford on living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) 

The fact that she is so frank and honest about these deeply personal issues is extremely respectable. What an awesome person.

Maria is a great spokesperson for people with metal health issues and those who need to love and live with them. Good support for everyone.

Maria Bamford is funny intelligent and a brilliant example that when a person decides to obtain help (The only shame is not obtaining HELP) I can relate to depression anxiety. Got stuck with a bad doctor who prescribed the wrong medicine. Life goes on but you have to deal with the best way you can. Good diet is an important factor. Meditation relaxation techniques-music going for walks. We all have our struggles. I can honestly say that the power of God did save my life. I was at a Very LOW ebb in the hospital and had a very dangerous drug reaction. I decided there and then That I Wanted to live No Matter What! I hope my story helps anyone going through ANY mental health issues. You are loved. No matter how Bad you are feeling bear in mind YOU can learn to deal with ANY issues. My prayers Blessings to ALL!

Ah, Maria. What a treasure! Thank you for this.

God DAMN she is pretty. And so funny and marvelous.

Maria is the greatest!

I have been a Maria fan for so many years and her honesty makes me cry just like her comedy makes me laugh….every time. I feel your pain sister.

Talking about ineffective therapy is incredibly important for us to continue improving services. Thank you both for your authenticity, humanity & generosity with your own experiences.

I think it's so awesome that we get to see and hear someone as special as Maria talk frankly about the several conditions that she deals with. When I was growing up in the 50's and 60's, stuff like this would have been hidden from any public view. I was especially interested in her thoughts on how performing actually helps her. I've long suspected that certain types of people are attracted to the performing arts because they discover a kind of healing dynamic (or at least a counteracting effect) that takes place that maybe gives them peace or comfort or a temporary respite from the pain. Thank you, Maria!

Her candor and efforts to create awareness about mental health issues and resources is much appreciated.

Comedic genius.

The tales of Jeezus...which can kind of be...restful . Lmao

This information is great. I need to help my dad find people to talk to on the cheap(financially).

I need therapy FROM her! Sheesh!

Maria is a brilliant and beautiful SOUL! Sucks sometimes that the human body has various neurological and psychological problems. Great interview!

She would make a great therapist. She listens so well.

My GP thinks I have ADD, (and so do I) and because I am over 60 I can't get diagnosed by a psychiatrist anywhere where I live.

👍

Great work Rudy thank you!

I want to see a Geoffrey Asmus Maria Bamford collaboration.

I love her comedy. Sad to know her art was accompanied by so much pain.

Ma-Hosh!

Maria is such an intense and emphatic person.

❤️🌟

Real art in many forms often comes from pain being expressed 🎨

Hi Maria! Be mine please! With love and laughs I want meet I'm 59

It seems like life is uncomfortable for her

OCD ? ...So she's a Woketard Democrat ?

Girl was giving Jennifer Coolidge when she was saying about “you gotta see this guy“

Maria, I understand you, I too love being on stage. And I need to get loud and lit! I’m a performance artist, usually silent tho… Your experiences. …. I hang in your every word. I need to do stand up comedy, and I wonder if you have been in touch with Hannah Gadsby- I consider you both future colleagues.
