Guest guest Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 First off I need to thank all of you who post and dedicate your time to this website- this is the only place I can go and feel like somebody gets it! My 10 year old son has been diagnosed with OCD for some time now. His latest issue is fear of poisoning- he is convinced their is a conspiracy to have him killed (by poisoning) and that his dad and I are involved. It has gotten to the point where he questions everything he eats, where it came from, etc. He is not eating much, so that coupled with the effects of the ADHD meds he is on does not make for a healthy body. All he wants from me is reassurance- but I know this is the last thing I can give him as it will only perpetuate the problem. This goes against everything I am as mom. AAAGGGHH! I had a mini-panic attack yesterday thinking and thinking and thinking... I know many of you can relate. Any suggestions? Currently he is not taking any meds for the OCD but is going through nuerofeedback which should help. His therapist, my son and I agreed that we would re-visit the meds question in October if no relief from Nuerofeedback. Thanks for reading!
