LOST ON REPEAT
“By the age of fifteen, I had survived flesh-eating bacteria, HIV-AIDS, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, pulmonary embolism, subarachnoid haemorrhage, three heart attacks and two brain tumours. All without a single day off sick from school—a miracle of modern science.”
Lost on Repeat: Compulsive Obsessive People is a dry, sharply observed, unsentimental account of living with OCD, health anxiety, and perfectionism.
Part memoir and part clinical reflection, the book follows psychologist James Spiers through forty years of obsession and compulsion, including five rounds of therapy alongside a career spent helping others navigate similar terrain.
Quirky in tone. Occasionally funny. Sometimes bleak.
It explores:
– Intrusive thoughts around harm and sexual themes
– Health anxiety and catastrophic thinking
– Religious and moral scrupulosity
– Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)
– Hoarding problems
– Postpartum OCD
– Obsessive-compulsive personality and perfectionism
This is not a self-help manual. It’s about people living life on repeat.
Written in a non-fiction novel style, it offers a rare glimpse into the obsessive-compulsive experience from both sides of the therapy room.
Available now in paperback, hardcover, and ebook.
