Publisher's summary

This audiobook contains three books, which are about the following sub-topics:

Book 1: If you have OCD or you think you do, this audiobook is for you. If you know anyone else who has OCD, this audiobook may good for you too. It’s simple: Understand the disorder, the causes of it, and the way to treat it, and you’ll understand yourself or those who have it better as well. This way, you’ll be able to interact with others better and recognize the patterns that cause the compulsive behavior.

In this audiobook, the biological, cognitive, and cerebral causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder will be broken down. Also, solutions, treatments, and therapy information will be provided. It’s a handy guide to help you understand the basics.

Sometimes, parents wonder how to treat their children when they have discovered the obsessive disorder. They may worry about the effects, how they interact with others at school, or how this will affect their professional career and future relationships. Some of these topics will be addressed, so that you won’t be left in the dark.

Book 2: OCD has often been treated with success. In most cases, this treatment simply means that the symptoms are reduced and managed effectively. OCD can be something to live with, and can even, in some cases, work to a person’s advantage. However, addictions and compulsions can also be harmful to the brain and create a wave of dopamine fluctuations that damages one’s mental health.

In this audiobook, we’ll go over some specific compulsions. We’ll answer various questions and tap into the information we have about hereditary causes. The 12-step program for families is laid out as a useful tool for those who have become caught up in addictions.

Book 3: Diagnosing OCD can be tricky, but when the symptoms are obvious, the conclusion is clear. OCD is quite common and is important to understand. People who understand the disorder, will have an easier time communicating and interacting with those who have it.

But here is a question:

Why is it called “obsessive compulsive” in the first place?

Aren’t obsessions and compulsions the same thing?

No, they are not.

And although there are similarities, this guide will shed more light on this question. Also, topics will be addressed such as how our culture influences OCD behaviors, different perspectives from scientists and clinicians, and the issue with finding the right therapy. All in all, you will get a much better comprehension of what OCD involves.

Awesome

I was waiting for this one. I was wondering if there was going to be a bundle of 3 books when I saw the first three appear from this author. Fredrick Gaines knows what he is talking about. Apparently, he has a lot of experience with people who have OCD. Recommended.

Good stuff

Great value for a credit, a 10-hour book, provided it is a good book. Well, this one is, and it did not disappoint. Thank you, and goodbye.
