Synopsis

Sufferers of OCD can spend hours performing ritualized actions to try to fend off imagined disaster or their fear of germs, injury or even numbers. In "Getting Control", Dr Baer offers OCD sufferers a straightforward plan for controlling their symptoms through behaviour therapy. Self-tests and case studies help readers gauge the type and severity of their problem. Then, by learning to control their symptoms, they gradually reduce the anxieties that produce the obsessions and compulsions themselves.
