We spoke in riddles sometimes and very literally in others.

We would confront a behaviour that was clearly o-c to

anyone other than the one who was 'stuck'. By identifying

we found that it was the first step to moving along. If

reasurance seeking was the issue, then answering once, but

then pointing out that only someone with ocd would have the

need to ask again. If someone was having a meltdown about

having to try something new - but 'its not ocd' then we

would point out that people without ocd dont have the same

feelings. Then we would try and break down the issues that

were causing the anxiety rather than dwelling on wether its

an obsession or compulsion.

Hope this helps Chris!

Take care, wendy, in canada
