Diagnosing obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) can be tricky, but when the symptoms are obvious, the conclusion is clear. OCD is quite common, and it is important to understand it. 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?

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.

Do you have OCD? Or do you know someone who has OCD? Or perhaps you have just seen the symptoms in yourself and others, and you’re wondering if it’s enough to classify it as a “disorder”. Either way, OCD is more common than you think. Therefore, it’s important and useful to educate yourself about it. One of the best ways you can do this, is by reading or listening to a book that explains all the details, the things to look, and answers a myriad of questions people have asked about it.

We occasionally see a television show with a daily segment called "The Worse Person on Earth". During this episode, the correspondent selects a few persons he believes have said or done anything deserving of his arrogant scorn. Numerous mental health experts may have used the term "worst patients on the planet" to describe persons with borderline personality disorder (BPD) not long ago.

When people are diagnosed with OCD, it doesn’t always come as a surprise. With others, it may be more of a shock. However, when we look at the symptoms and the influences that affect such people, it may not be any wonder that it is more prevalent than many have assumed it to be. OCD is a very real, common disorder that knows variations in severity and randomness. Some people are obsessed with cleaning, while others can’t stop double-checking locks, organizational spaces, or items.

Childhood anxiety is a terrible thing to see as a parent, especially as your child starts to miss out on opportunities that will haunt them the rest of their lives. It can stop them from developing close friendships and affect how they do in school. Left untreated, it will damage them for years to come.

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

In Saving Normal, Allen Frances, one of the world's most influential psychiatrists, warns that mislabeling everyday problems as mental illness has shocking implications for individuals and society: Stigmatizing a healthy person as mentally ill leads to unnecessary, harmful medications, the narrowing of horizons, misallocation of medical resources, and draining of the budgets of families and the nation.

Challenging both the idea of the addict's "broken brain" and the notion of a simple "addictive personality", Unbroken Brain offers a radical and groundbreaking new perspective, arguing that addiction is a learning disorder, and shows how seeing the condition this way can untangle our current debates over treatment, prevention, and policy.

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

Russ Harris offers a surprising solution to low self-confidence, shyness, and insecurity: Rather than trying to "get over" our fears, he says, the secret is to form a new and wiser relationship with them. Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it.

No complaints
I don't like to complain, so I am not going to. I am going to do the opposite: I loved this book. The obsessive compulsions can help a person with certain things, but they can also be in their way of functioning properly in everyday life. Thanks for putting this book together so that we can all have some more insights in the disorder.

The OCD mind is great
And this is a great book about that topic. They know a lot. They are very capable. But they have some issues to deal with. That's one of the messages. And I like it.
