Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 My daughter also experienced a lot of death before the onset of her OCD. Several parents of her friends died. After her OCD began, some kids she knew died too. She was already an anxious kid, but these things set off her OCD. It is too bad we can't just teach them how to deal with death, stress, etc...and the OCD would just go away! My daughter is also on 30mg prozac. Keep me posted on how her bathroom issues go. Hopefully, the increase on prozac will help!! Quote

As far as our bathroom issues - so far, the " rules " we set about how to wipe have been working. Naturally I can only say for the times I'm with her in the bathroom & watch her. What she does by herself in there - who knows, although those times are rare. Also, I think we're seeing a difference with the increase in meds (from 20mg to 30mg about a week ago). My dd seems to accept compromise a little easier & the stress level appears to have come down another half-notch. Hey - every little bit helps! LT Quote
