Guest guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 HI- I have OCD and although I have just started the workbook, I feel it is helping- the research cited in Chapter 2 (of Get out of your Mind and into your Life)points directly to obsessive thought patterns and where they originate in our relational framing mind- sometimes it helps to understand the reasons we do things in order to stop identifying the thoughts as "us". I hope this makes sense. Subject: ACT & OCDTo: ACT_for_the_Public Date: Wednesday, July 9, 2008, 3:36 PM Hello all-I just joined this group, so forgive me if this has been discussed before, but does anyone have any experience with or knowledge of treating OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) with ACT? A book on OCD I read recently mentioned the use of ACT in treatment, and I'd love to know if anyone has any firsthand experience.Thanks!Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Hi - I haven't read Get Out of Your Mind yet, but I just ordered it today and am looking forward to reading it. I recently started The Mindfulness & Acceptance Workbook for Anxiety by Forsyth & Eifert...is that the workbook you're referring to? > > > Subject: ACT & OCD > To: ACT_for_the_Public > Date: Wednesday, July 9, 2008, 3:36 PM > > > > > > > Hello all- > > I just joined this group, so forgive me if this has been discussed > before, but does anyone have any experience with or knowledge of > treating OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) with ACT?
