Produktbeschreibung

Toi Hershman had an almost idyllic childhood. She had a loving family and everything she ever needed. But in second grade, she started feeling anxiety creep in and needed to tap things or make things "just right" to calm down. If she didn't, she was convinced bad things would happen. As she got older, the urge to tap only got stronger and more fears and compulsions began to emerge. Things continued to get worse until she was finally diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder when she was twelve.

Out of OCD: The Adventures in Compulsive Obsessions follows Hershman's journey from normal childhood to OCD diagnosis to career woman and mother struggling just to get through every day. Using personal anecdotes and research, Hershman lays out the struggles that millions of people face daily, from being accused of being oversensitive to being told to "Just get over it." She answers questions readers may have, such as:

• Why do I feel like I am losing my mind?
• Why does the media ignore OCD in its true form?
• Why is proper OCD treatment so hard to find?
• Why can't I fix this?

Hershman has battled OCD for over thirty-five years. It's now time for her story to be told.
