Causes of OCD

[Guest guest]

When my DS 14 was diagnosed with OCD at 11 I immediately kept looking

for the answer and why, was it something I did? Did we overprotect him?

I finally came to the realization that it was just in our history. It

is hard to see the pain and especially not knowing how to help, what to

do. I cried, I felt alone, and I didn't know what had happened. I

struggled to try to find the why. I didn't realize I went through a

grieving process which someone told me that last year and it made sense

that I had to let go of what I thought would be and love and support DS

as he is today. Easy? No. But thank goodness I found this group,

since we have no local entity even that is educated about OCD, because

when your not alone what a tremedous support and a kind of a relief to

know others are dealing with this family disorder and surviving.
