In this classic study of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a distinguished psychiatrist offers hope and help for those suffering from mental illness, suggesting pathways forward through behavioral therapies and mediation.
Drawing on the extraordinary experiences of her patients, Dr. Judith Rapoport unravels the mysteries surrounding OCD, an emotionally crippling affliction that affects millions of Americans. The Boy Who Couldn’t Stop Washing follows Dr. Rapaport’s patient, the pseudonymous “David,” who developed such severe OCD symptoms that he spent so long each day washing himself and cleaning his home that he could no longer keep a job.
Through the example of her treatment of “David,” Dr. Rapoport explores the ways in which OCD manifests, how it affects individuals and their families, and the treatment options available to those who suffer from this mental illness.
Revealing breakthroughs in diagnosis, therapies, and medication, as well as offering guidelines for diagnosis, resources, and references, Dr. Rapaport offers hope and practical advice for those seeking help for themselves or their loved ones with OCD.
