The New Yorker Documentary

Manny Padilla is a 17-year-old musician living with severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Tormented since a young age by the belief that one wrong action could open a portal to another dimension and tear him away from everyone he loves, Manny has engaged in nearly constant compulsive behavior that has prevented him from basic functioning. In 2021, Manny began ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention), an intensive treatment which demands he confront his core fears head on.
