Obsessions Compulsions Disorders

Obsessions Compulsions Disorders

OCD or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is an anxiety related problem and sufferers will typically experience their condition worsens at times of stress, uncertainty or upset. Advanced Hypnotherapy and NLP has proven to be an extremely effective form
of treatment to help you can take control of your life and your future.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

A person with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) experiences repetitive, intrusive and unwelcome thoughts, images, impulses actions and doubts which will typically get worse with time if left untreated. The OCD sufferer broods over the task (or thought) and the person becomes preoccupied and their mind is dominated by these thoughts. Sufferers will probably know that the behaviours are irrational but will not have the strategies to effectively deal with them.

Obsessional behaviour can include:-
• Checking things repeatedly e.g. locks, windows, doors
• Counting rituals e.g. checking your car door handle 5 times to make sure it’s locked
• A fear of contamination by dirt or germs
• Obsessive washing sometimes to the point or rawness
• Constant negative thoughts
• Obsessive worry or jealousy about your partner
• Having negative voices battle with positive ones
• Sexual obsessions or unwanted sexual thoughts (compulsion to view porn etc.)

Compulsions

With a compulsion, the sufferer feels immediate benefit from carrying out their compulsion. The more stress and anxiety someone has in their life, the stronger and more frequent their compulsions will become, resulting in their “escape” from the negative situation becoming shorter. This often results in feelings of guilt.

Compulsive behaviour can include:-
• Excessive drinking s
• Smoking
• Nail biting or pen chewing
• Comfort eating / over eating
• Gambling in bookies, internet or casino’s
• Drug addictions
• Self harming
• Spending in stores, internet or shopping channels etc
