Publisher's summary

Show your anxieties, worries, and negative thoughts about who's in charge of it through this book, Parenting Teens with OCD.

Nobody wishes to be free of obsessive-compulsive disorder more than the person who suffers from it. You're not alone if you worry a lot because your kid has habits you can't seem to break, even if it may feel that way at times.

The Parenting Teens with OCD book includes all the relevant information to help your kids control negative thoughts, let go of anxious sensations, and halt difficult-to-stop behaviors to get back to doing what they enjoy.

Each chapter opens with a part that assists teenagers and their parents/caregivers focus on specific issues and developing skills for tuning out obsessions and resisting compulsions. The sections that follow demonstrate how to be helpful without interfering.

You may not know anybody else who suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) symptoms such as the urge to wash their hands continually, to check to be sure everything is okay, to count items, to put things in order, or even to repeat ideas recurrently.

When your kid is stressed or anxious, rituals like these can help them relax, but you already know that the respite is only short, and they'll have to repeat the process when they're feeling uneasy again. This loop might make them feel trapped, yet breaking it may seem impossible or even terrifying.

Parenting Teens with OCD includes simple cognitive behavioral therapy ideas to help you overcome your kids’ symptoms and live a life of freedom and flexibility. Your kid will be able to finally halt compulsive ideas in their tracks and prevent them from returning.

When your kid has OCD, your entire world might be turned inside out. This book will teach you how to:

  • Recognize when your kid’s thoughts are accurate and when they are overblown.
  • Recognize and avoid situations that cause your kid's symptoms to flare up.
  • Make friends and gain confidence in social situations by doing so.
  • Instead of relying on rituals, try relaxation techniques.

The book normalizes and supports the frequently hidden and unacknowledged thoughts, desires, and images and the accompanying rituals and compulsions that so many children and teens with OCD battle with.

The family of a teen with OCD will be ready to boss back the next time OCD shows up or show an undesirable visitor the door. So, buy now and begin your journey to a happier and more peaceful life.

A must-have book for parents

I recently completed listening to this book, and I wholeheartedly suggest it if you're trying to manage your child's anxiety. It provides an explanation for worry that really makes being empathetic much simpler. It explains anxiety in a way that has become so obvious and useful in my mind. It reframes things for me so beautifully, and I believe it will have a significant impact on how I interact with and support my child's fear.

Freeing Your Child from OCD

Very useful, especially if you've just learned that your child has OCD. Before listening to this book, I felt totally powerless. After listening to this book, we now understand how to confront and treat the beast known as OCD.

Great for younger kids.

I believe this book will be beneficial for my younger patients—possibly those under 12 years old. The treatments and explanations are excellent and divide the illness into smaller, more manageable chunks. I'll keep applying it to my work.

Helpful for parents as well as therapists

As a therapist, I frequently discuss this with parents of kids who are battling OCD and other forms of worry. This opens parents' eyes and offers structure and useful tools for getting rid of accommodation.

Great resource!!

The book helped my kid and I understand and deal with OCD. We still chose to visit a therapist. This book is a fantastic interim resource and the ideal complement to treatment.
