Any sufferers of OCD will be able to relate when I talk of the strain it can put on mental health. Repeating actions over and over again and constantly having nagging thoughts circulating your mind is awful. If it gets bad enough it can even begin to affect your work and personal life. Clearly a solution is needed and this book is a great place to start.It offers a complete look at everything to do with OCD from the symptoms and the diagnosis all the way through to the all-important treatment. The writing style means that all the information and advice is easy to understand, OCD can be an overwhelming subject so having everything clearly laid out and broken down helps greatly. I do not suffer from OCD myself but my partner does so I decided to get this book to help her while also educating myself on the subject. Now we have both read the tips and advice given they have become part of the daily routine and changes are beginning to happen. One of her biggest issues was with cleanliness but recently she has been much more relaxed regarding this and that has to be seen as brilliant progress. As the guidance of this book has been the only thing we have implemented recently I have to give it all the credit.
