Do you feel helpless and frustrated as you struggle to understand and help your child stop the bizarre doubts and habits that take over his mind and his life? Your child may be one of millions of children suffering from OCD. Now, there is hope and help for your child. Dr. Aureen Wagner brings you the latest scientific advances in the treatment of this beguiling disorder, along with her many years of experience in treating children and teenagers. Using the metaphor of the Worry Hill, for which she has received international recognition, Dr. Wagner presents a powerful step-by-step approach that countless children have used successfully to regain control from OCD. She provides parents and children with the blueprint to take charge of and master OCD. Her skill, compassion and expert guidance will give you new hope, energy and resolve to conquer OCD. Part I (Chapters 1-6) covers the essential facts about OCD, its diagnosis, causes and treatments. Knowing the facts is the first step to mastery of OCD. In Part I, Dr. Wagner discusses the various ways in which OCD can invade your child's thoughts and behaviors and how to tell normal fears and habits apart from OCD and other conditions. You will learn about the Vicious Cycle of Avoidance that fuels OCD and about treatment with Exposure and Ritual Prevention (ERP). You will learn about medication options available today for OCD and when it may be appropriate to consider them for your child. In Part II (Chapters 7-14), Dr. Wagner lays out the master plan and a child-friendly approach to helping your child overcome OCD. Dr. Wagner presents a series of steps that will help you systematically tackle OCD. You will learn how to take charge of your lives, take back control from OCD and take care of yourself so that you can take better care of your child. You will also find strategies for the unique parenting challenges that OCD brings and an approach to helping your child through schooling issues. Each chapter ends with answers to Frequently-Asked Questions."
