Summary: Found to be VERY helpful 2008-11-17
Comment: I don't want to be misleading and say that this book completely "freed" me from OCD, but with meds and the behavioral therapies described in this book, I am SIGNIFICANTLY better than I was even a mere 6 months ago. What I found most helpful about this book was really the simple steps that it lays out to help slowly ease yourself out of the obsessive thoughts or rituals. It's not an overnight fix by any means, but for those who suffer from the disorder, it's incredibly helpful. My favorite line in the book (which the author's used quite often as a slogan) is "It's not me - it's my OCD!" Immediately by making the realization that the thoughts are due to this disorder called OCD and not based on reality, they begin to diminish. With time, they'll begin to disappear.

Summary: An Answer to Prayer 2008-08-17
Comment: This book provided my son with the hope and steps he needed to be healed of OCD. We read others, but it was simple enough for this 6th grader to understand with the consistant help of his parents. We practiced each step until there were no more symptoms. Our healthy, bright, social boy was back. It took several months. We were very thankful.
