Scheana Shay Getting Treatment for OCD: ‘Battle Every Day’

It’s easy to criticize Scheana Shay. Almost too easy. As such, it’s often hard to remember the things she struggles with. For example, the Vanderpump Rules star’s postpartum OCD which she opened up about in January last year.

As she explained on her podcast, “Up until the last six months, just being a new mom and dealing with these intrusive thoughts and feelings that I knew wasn’t postpartum depression, I didn’t know what it was, and I think therapy is really helping me, and I love it.”

How refreshing to see a reality star trying to address their issues with professional help rather than run away from them. Scheana still struggles, however, and understandably so. Last week, she reflected on her journey with the condition.

Scheana reveals her OCD brain treatment

At the Vanderpump Rules Season 11 premiere, Scheana spoke with PEOPLE about her postpartum OCD. She explained, “I feel like, especially as a mom, postpartum OCD is something that’s not talked about.”

PEOPLE quoted the International OCD Foundation in its explanation of postpartum OCD: “The obsessions and compulsions usually focus on the newborn (or unborn) infant. For example, there may be obsessions about the baby getting hurt, contaminated, or lost; and compulsive rituals involving checking, mental rituals, and seeking reassurance.”

Scheana went on, “It’s misdiagnosed. A lot of people don’t know what’s wrong with them. And so once I figured this out, I was like, ‘Oh my God. Now it makes sense.’” She added, “I’ve since had a brain scan. I’m on a whole brain and power supplement pack. And I feel like those have been really helping my intrusive thoughts and just overall how I’m feeling.”

Despite her strides, she also shared, “But I mean, it is, you know, a battle every day in my brain.” Scheana does have a point – conditions specific to women (and especially mothers) often don’t receive enough discussion. Just another symptom of the patriarchy.

Vanderpump Rules Season 11 hits Bravo on Tuesday, January 30 at 8/7c.

EXCLUSIVE: Alexia Nepola’s Son Peter Rosello Responds to Ana Quincoces’ Claims He Tried to ‘Roofie’ Her Daughter

Fans of Alexia Nepola are definitely getting their money’s worth in Real Housewives of Miami Season 6. One might say Alexia’s gotten too much screen time, especially with the Ana Quincoces debacle.

When Alexia found out Ana would be coming to the Mother’s Day lunch, she ran away. She eventually returned to confront Ana and everything fell apart and went south real quick. Still, at least Alexia’s relationship with her sons looked to be doing well.

Season 6 showed Alexia and her son Peter Rosello were on good terms, despite their history. Now, Ana and her daughter Beba have levied a hefty accusation against Peter, and Reality Tea has Peter’s response.

Peter’s response to Ana Quincoces’ allegation

While on the Behind the Velvet Rope podcast in early 2023, Beba told a story of how she’d been invited to a party by Peter. Upon arriving with her friends, she saw “Peter Rosello and three other guys smoking from a bong and making drinks.” Her friends were confused since it was reportedly a party. Beba then said, “All my friends got roofied that night.”

Ana added, “We don’t know who did it, allegedly,” but the implication was clear. Beba said it didn’t matter. The crowd of people alone was a reflection of Peter’s character. Ana then went on to say that Peter was “the worst” of any of the Housewives’ kids.

Cut to this week. On Ana and Beba’s podcast, Mami Issues, the two began discussing Alexia. Beba interestingly said, “Don’t go for her kids.” Ana said she wasn’t to which Beba said, “But you’re just using me and [my sister] Kati as ammo for something and I just want to make sure …” Ana said she wouldn’t “go for Frankie, but Peter is fair game.” She then flat-out accused Peter of trying “to roofie” Beba.

When asked for comment, Peter told Reality Tea he didn’t know “what she [was] talking about. I haven’t seen them since I was 18 yrs old. Never were friends.” He added, “Smh can’t believe they are talking sh*t like that.” As it stands, Ana’s claims are purely allegations with no evidence to back them up. She better have some evidence, or she may need to lawyer up.

Real Housewives of Miami continues Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
