[QUOTE="catwoman2, post: 303192, member: 2533"] Well, my difficult child's adhd seemed to have become less noticable the last year or so, she was even off her medications (mostly because of the side effects). Now she has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). When I look back throughout her younger years, I start to see some things that were probably Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) then, but they were fairly minor. Things like having to have her blankets "fixed" (put nice and tidy over her) or she wouldn't go to sleep until I "fixed" them. She used to have an old computer in her room for playing games on, but we had to remove it because she became terrified of it, claiming it might turn on by itself during the night. We tried to reassure her that it wouldn't come on by itself, but she was so obsessed with the thought of it turning on by itself that there was no reasoning with her. And the fact that I always knew if she did something wrong because she always told on herself. Her older brother used to laugh at her and ask her why she told on herself all he time and she said she had to or she would get a headache. For right now, she seems to just have obsessive thoughts and no compulsions or rituals, other than making sure her hair is "just right" or her pony tail is straight, but that could be just her age. She is starting on prozac to help with her thoughts and therapy to help her deal with the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Anyone else with difficult child's with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)? Any success in keeping it under control? [/QUOTE]
