In this captivating fusion of science and personal memoir, writer David Adam explores the weird thoughts that exist within every mind. David has suffered from OCD for twenty years, and The Man Who Couldn’t Stop is his honest attempt to understand the condition. At what point does a harmless idea become a blinding blizzard of unwanted thoughts? Drawing on the latest research on the brain, as well as historical accounts of patients and their treatments, this is an audiobook that will challenge the way you think about what is normal, and what is mental illness.

A brave and deep, yet concise dive into this terrifying affliction. Adam is courageous in shining a spotlight here, a subject with is little understood and highly misrepresented. His bravery in talking about his own affliction is commendable. A must read for therapists, psychologists and anyone interested in the mind.

Profound and Insightful

Really enjoyed this book. Great balance of history of mental illness of this nature with personal experience. Definitely recommend this read to anyone who is curious about this condition. I didn't expect a book of this nature to be so difficult to put down...but I was intrigued cover to cover.

Great book, well written and contains a lot of informant about the disorder itself and what life is like with it.
I have to read many books such as this for my schooling and this one sticks out as one that provides a holistic overview of OCD not just what it’s like to have it as many others do.

Great narration. My son suffers from debilitating OCD. I’m reading, or listening to, every first hand account by an author who actually has it, and this book was by far the most useful to me. It’s rich with tidbits of psychiatric history. A pleasure to listen to despite its grim subject.

A wealth of information on OCD

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The personal story of Mr. Adam intermixed with educational information was amazing. I enjoyed hearing about OCD from a first person perspective.

Wonderful story

I learned quite a bit about OCD which my son has lived with since he was a young boy, he is now 30. Wish I had read something like this sooner, I suppose I thought I understood the topic a great deal better. My only negative about this book is that he did not really get into much about the brain scans and related research that has been done over the last few years. I am certain, however, there are many books I can find which will lend more to that topic. If you are dealing with OCD or have a loved one who is, you definitely want to read this book.

Better understanding of OCD

This book is game-changing for those dealing with OCD or who think they might have OCD; it is well written and helps you understand your symptoms very well.

OCD is a very complex disorder with a lot of different symptoms. Unfortunately, many think OCD is only about washing hands many times per day or checking locks. This book gives you a deep understanding of OCD and explains different symptoms very well.

Very well written
