Faith & Hope, LLC specialists offer a comprehensive treatment approach to help an individual free oneself of the grip of obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety. OCD is a complex brain disorder having different layers varying from person to person. Our experienced therapists design a specifically tailored treatment plan for every individual as per the needs and requirements.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a severe mental health condition that heavily navigates a person’s behavior. Patients suffering from this disorder are likely to fixate on smaller things of life in an outsized way.
The disease has two parts: obsession and compulsion.
The person has an “obsession” with specific thoughts, ideas, words, and images that keep repeating in mind. This causes one to take his/ her focus away from the present moment, leading to negative recurring feelings such as fear, disgust, doubt, and anxiety. This inculcates the tendency of perfectionism and doing everything “just right.”
Obsession takes away the enjoyment.
Compulsion is a behavior that a person uses to eliminate obsessive thoughts. This can be equated to a behavioral response to anxiety. This eventually leads to unnatural habits that the patient might do to feel secure and safe.
Its signs and symptoms include:
An important point here is that people tend to use the term quite loosely to describe even a well-hygiene person with good habits. This may confuse those with the symptoms to differentiate from healthy behavior patterns. Such misnomers can dilute the suffering of those living with the problem.
