Guest guest Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hi All! It's been quite a while since I posted. I've been busy completing my research exploring omega-3 fatty acids and/or B-vitamins in children with OCD. But, I had to post about an amazing organizaton created to help people suffering from OCD. PeaceLove Studios was founded by Sparr (see peacelovestudios.com). He holds painting classes called Paint4Peace where participants learn about OCD and paint for peace of mind. Our Foxboro, MA OCD parent's support group participated in the class yesterday (parents, children, and siblings) and we were all inspired as a result. If you are in the Rhode Island area, I highly recommend that you take a class. If not, you can purchase a Paint4Peace kit and other products that support their efforts on their website. Here is another example of someone giving back to the community in an effort to help other OCD sufferers! BTW, my son is now 16 and doing great! He had a bit of a hiccup with his OCD recently (I think due to hormones and some bad nutritional choices) but he nipped it pretty quickly and is back on track. He still takes his omega-3 fatty acids, B-vitamins, Cal/mag/zinc, and 5-HTP daily and has been considered " sub-clinical " for over 6/7 years now. What a far cry from the early days when his OCD monster ruled our lives! in MA **************Hot Deals at Dell on Popular Laptops perfect for Back to School (http://pr.atwola.com/promoclk/100126575x1223106546x1201717234/aol?redir=http:%2\ F%2Faltfarm.mediaplex.com%2Fad%2Fck%2F12309%2D81939%2D1629%2D8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
