[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh, why is everyone suggesting punishments and rewards when it's clear she's actually doing MORE work to conceal than it would take to do it in the first place? She really doesn't want to do these things. They're painful enough that she's willing to go out of her way to avoid them. That's kind of the opposite of laziness or not understanding the consequences. Honestly, OP, this sounds a bit like me at that age and later-- I was less extreme but I had mild OCD and moderate anxiety and sensory issues. I beg you to address this from that angle first. I think people assume people with OCD are hyper-clean, but it can manifest as the opposite as well.[/quote] My thoughts exactly. Punishments, rewards, and shaming are not the way to go--for anything. OP, behaviors have meaning. Get to the root of what's begins the behavior. Tackle the disease, not the symptom. [/quote]
