[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He should get set up with a psychiatrist/therapist as soon as possible in his new area even if he’s leaving old location feeling well and with plenty of medication just in case he has a flare up. It can be very discouraging to start feeling badly and be calling around trying to get in with someone only to hear there is a 4 month wait. Other than that if he’s doing well now and has the appropriate skills learned in cbt/erb therapy he should do well-many very high functioning people with great, fulfilling lives have ocd. [/quote] +1 my ocd “onset” when I was 22 (I’m now 38). It was so difficult in the beginning, but After high-quality treatment I recovered enough to meet a wonderful partner, continue studies, eventually reduce medication, have a family, etc. i have a very happy life. :) but the ability to connect with professional help when there are flare ups is very important.[/quote]
