[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know. If your son has no signs of OCD at 18 you are doing pretty well! When did it show up for you? [/quote] High school. I think our biggest concern is that stress exacerbates mine, and what's more stressful than starting college? DH thinks that might trigger it, but who knows?[/quote] So many people have OCD and lead successful and happy lives. And for many of them there are signs of OCD or anxiety much younger than high school. There are many worse fates than OCD or anxiety - as long as it is handled well. It sounds like the only real reason for concern here is that he is going to a military academy where perhaps it may disqualify him. Worst case scenario he will have to transfer to a normal college where OCD will seem much less of an issue to you. It will be what it will be. [/quote]
