The boy who couldn't stop washing

Up to six million Americans are afflicted with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a serious, emotionally crippling disease. Cleaning, counting, washing, checking, avoiding—these are just some of the rituals that sufferers are powerless to stop. Now an expert on OCD reveals breakthroughs in diagnosis, successful new behaviorist therapies, drug treatments, and more.

המשפט הראשון: In this chapter, a father, a psychologist with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and his wife, a social worker, talk about life with this illness and about looking for help for their seven-year-old son, who suffers from the same problem as his father.
