Robert James explores ideas from Ernest Becker's The Denial of Death and how awareness of mortality can influence OCD and anxiety—driving our need for control, compulsions, and the search for meaning.

He links these concepts to social fears, 'hero systems,' and defensive personality patterns, then outlines hopeful recovery ideas like exposure and response prevention, acceptance, and rediscovering life beyond compulsions
