Hi everyone,

I am very new to this site and have not read much in it yet. I am looking to

connect with parents whose children exhibit the confessing aspect of the

disorder as well as the constant and relentless question asking (usually in the

form of clarification of things the child already knows the answer to but

sometimes in the form of needing to know everything everyone is talking about).

Her confessing involves fears about lying, cheating, doing bad things,

especially things she's been asked not to do. These things can often be as

benign stepping on her sister's toy that I asked her not to do.

She has been in CBT for a couple of years (first noticed signs of OCD when she

was 5 or 6). She started taking Zoloft in December which has greatly improved

the symptoms but has not eradicated them completely. I am also concerned about

disinhibition where she may be acting more defiant at home.

Can anyone relate? How have things improved for your children? How have you

coped with the myriad feelings of frustration, anger, disappointment, sadness,

empathy, etc.

I know I just dumped a lot of detail but would like to either hear back from

parents with kids who have similar issues and/or a guide to where in this site I

can find posts related to the above mentioned issues.

Thanks,
