Summary: The Best One Yet
Comment: I've read many books on OCD - I've been a sufferer since I was a child. This is definitely the best one yet! It offers so much hope: strategies for postponing compulsive actions, quizzes and checklists, etc. I have even tried a few, and they actually worked!! That's a new one for me. YOu definitely feel as if you can get help from this book. I congratulate the author - she must be an amazing therapist!

Summary: HORRIBLE TREATMENT FOR OCD
Comment: I was diagnosed with OCD in 1997 and have been treated with Zoloft and psychotherapy. I thought this book sounded good so I read the beginning of it. Towards the middle of the book I got to the authors' suggestions for treating obsessions about public restroom sanitation. I was truly disturbed by their suggestion: to smear your own fecal matter on your body in order to overcome your fear of contamination. I thought this was truly disgusting and did not finish reading the book. Maybe the ending had some great advice but I definitely do not recommend this book. There are much better ways of treating OCD.

Summary: Pure obsessives & ritual thinkers take heart. THERE IS HELP!
Comment: I have OCD and didn't understand what I had or how to treat it. I was treated with medication for 5 years and had to go off it because of liver problems all the while not understanding the kind of OCD I have. I had a relapse about 10 months later and really struggled for answers. I discovered the self help books here at amazon and found this book. I am a pure obsessive and ritual thinker and never scored high on any OCD test. This book helped me understand what I have, how to treat it, and has specific suggestions on developing a CBT program that works for me. It has been such a great help to me I can't begin to tell you. I really recommend this book to all OCD suffers but especially to you pure obsessives as there is not much out there for us. I read three books and this was by far the best.
