About this listen
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is quite common. It is one of those things that you should know more about, because there might be someone in your life who has it. The condition has pros and cons, but if you don’t know about any of those, life can be tough.
In this book, we’ll touch on the nature of obsessions, how they are different from compulsive behavior, and which similarities they show. Additionally, the biological and environmental causes of this disorder will be highlighted.
In the end chapter, some solutions to managing its symptoms will be given. You won’t regret getting this book!

When people are diagnosed with OCD, it doesn’t always come as a surprise. With others, it may be more of a shock. However, when we look at the symptoms and the influences that affect such people, it may not be any wonder that it is more prevalent than many have assumed it to be. OCD is a very real, common disorder that knows variations in severity and randomness. Some people are obsessed with cleaning, while others can’t stop double-checking locks, organizational spaces, or items.

Hallucinations, everyone’s heard of them, but most don’t know the full extent and there are a lot of preconceived ideas and stereotypes out there. Emotional resilience is another thing that most people don’t really understand, as it’s not as well known. Bulimia is something that is more well known, but is the knowledge you possess accurate? Brain cancer, something no one wished existed. This guide will help shed some light on these subjects, and suggest/provide some treatment options.

Do you have OCD? Or do you know someone who has OCD? Or perhaps you have just seen the symptoms in yourself and others, and you’re wondering if it’s enough to classify it as a “disorder”. Either way, OCD is more common than you think. Therefore, it’s important and useful to educate yourself about it. One of the best ways you can do this, is by reading or listening to a book that explains all the details, the things to look, and answers a myriad of questions people have asked about it.

Diagnosing obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) can be tricky, but when the symptoms are obvious, the conclusion is clear. OCD is quite common, and it is important to understand it. People who understand the disorder will have an easier time communicating and interacting with those who have it. But here is a question: Why is it called “obsessive compulsive”, in the first place? Aren’t obsessions and compulsions the same thing?

In recent years there has been an alarming rise in the number of American children and youth assigned a mental health diagnosis. Current data from the Centers for Disease Control reveal a 41 percent increase in rates of ADHD diagnoses over the past decade and a forty-fold spike in bipolar disorder diagnoses.

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

In recent years there has been an alarming rise in the number of American children and youth assigned a mental health diagnosis.

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.
