| Summary: | Understanding OCD delves deep into what is meant by obsessional thoughts and compulsive behaviours, and debunks many of the myths associated with the disorder. It explores common types and symptoms, lesser-known varieties, potential biological and psychological causes, and how it presents differently depending on age, gender and culture. Get to know the mental health conditions that often co-exist with OCD, such as anxiety, stress, tic disorders, ADHD and autism, and weigh up the benefits of seeking support and getting a diagnosis. We look at self-help strategies, as well as effective therapies, such as CBT, ERP and ACT, and also consider the roles of medication and mindfulness practices. Whether you have the condition yourself or you've picked up this book to support a loved one, you've come to the right place. |
