For many fans of The Young and the Restless, it’s been hard to watch Connor Newman (Judah Mackey) continue to struggle with OCD. His story becomes even more heartbreaking in the episode airing on May 21, when he hops on a video call with Adam (Mark Grossman) and Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan).
During the call, he essentially apologizes to his parents for having OCD and suspects their lives would be easier without him in it. Of course, their son's words simply gut the duo, who do all they can to reassure him that they love him unconditionally and are better people for knowing him. Connor takes in what they’re saying, but we can’t help but feel he’ll need a lot more reassurance from them in the days ahead.
