Sample Book Insights: #1 Obsessive-compulsive disorder is not a quirk or just a habit. It is a mental illness that brings with it a sense of fear and anxiety. It is not a choice, and it does not bring any sense of fulfillment or joy. #2 OCD is a brain and behavioral disorder that is associated with anxiety, fear, doubt, or disgust, or any combination of these. It can take up to seventeen years from the onset of symptoms to connect to effective treatment. #3 Triggers are what prompt your unwanted thoughts and urges in OCD. They can be external, such as people, places, and things in your environment, or they can be internal thoughts or urges. Obsessions are frequent and persistent thoughts, images, or urges that are disturbing and unwanted. #4 obsessions can lead to years of suffering if they are not treated. They can take you away from what’s important to you, and they can lead to skin damage or infections if you try to avoid them by washing your hands excessively.
