Living with OCD
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a condition where you will be experiencing obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours. Dealing with OCD can be tough for the person who has it as well as those around them. Normal life can become exhausting.
Part of OCD involves unwanted, often overwhelming thoughts or urges (obsessions) that play over and over again. The other part involves repeated behaviours (compulsions) following those thoughts, like excessive hand-washing or saying certain things in your head.
Our video describes some common OCD symptoms and offers self-help tips for anyone living with OCD.
What is OCD?
OCD is an anxiety disorder that consists of obsessions and compulsions.
Someone with OCD may experience unwanted repetitive thoughts, often accompanied by high levels of anxiety, a sense of responsibility and guilt.
Common obsessions that affect people with OCD include fear of deliberately harming yourself or others.
Fear of harming yourself or others by mistake.
Fear of contamination by disease or infection.
A need for symmetry or orderliness.
Compulsions begin as a way of trying to reduce or prevent anxiety caused by the obsessive thoughts.
These compulsions can include: cleaning and hand washing, checking, counting, ordering and arranging, hoarding, asking for reassurance, repeating words in their head, thinking neutralizing thoughts
to counter obsessive thoughts, avoiding places and situations that could trigger obsessive thoughts.
Here are some coping strategies you could use to support people with OCD.
Communication is key at this difficult time.
It may be helpful to have regular family meetings to discuss how you'll support one another.
People may need time to themselves; try and create an area where family members can have quiet time.
If space doesn't allow, discuss how each person wants to be supported in having quiet time.
If you notice these symptoms yourself, create individual support plans.
Ask yourself: how can I help myself when I'm feeling worried or distressed?
What positive distractions can help me?
How can I let my family know that I'm struggling?
What will help me feel supported?
Communicating and sharing your thoughts with someone you trust will help.
It may be that they have encountered a similar problem and can talk you through how they manage this.

What is OCD?
OCD is an anxiety disorder that consists of obsessions and compulsions.
Someone with OCD may experience unwanted repetitive thoughts, often accompanied by high levels of anxiety, a sense of responsibility and guilt.
If you notice that your child is suffering with OCD, here are some coping strategies that might.
Having a traffic light system enables your child to share a colour, picture that represents an emotion without necessarily having to speak about how they're feeling.
The worry jar enables the child to visually see that once the worry has been addressed, it doesn't need to be a worry any longer.
A brave jar.
Allowing your child to focus on a positive thing they have achieved that day.
This will help promote increased confidence, and self-esteem.
Keeping a diary of what they were doing when they began feeling anxious, helps to identify what triggers these feelings.
Also teaching them how to manage these situations in the future.
Using ice, having your child hold a couple of ice cubes in their hands helps the mind focus on the sensation of coldness rather than any distressing thoughts or feelings.
Grounding techniques are a coping strategy, which help you feel reconnected with reality.
The following can help young people to feel back in control of their emotions.
Tell yourself you are safe and that these feelings will pass.
Acknowledge five things you can see.
Acknowledge four things you can touch.
Acknowledge three things you can hear.
Acknowledge two things you can smell.
If you don't have the right things around you to complete the steps just mentioned, then ask yourself questions such as: where in the world is cold?
