دانلود کتاب اختلال وسواس فکری اجباری(OCD)

Obsessive compulsive disorder affects about 2 to 3 million American adults. Since the first edition of this book, new research-backed strategies have been introduced for treating OCD. However, the most well-researched standard treatment, exposure and response prevention, has remained essentially the same with only a few minor changes. This book updates the standard treatment and explains some of the newer, emerging strategies. The introduction to the first edition of this book described the experience of being delayed on a flight. After finishing a movie or a novel, people tended to mindlessly look at the inflight magazines and catalogues. Many of those catalogues were filled with gadgets. Some of those gadgets were for sanitizing devices. Handheld wands were offered for sale that disinfected areas in the plane that others may have touched. After reading about bacteria, germs, and microbes in the catalogues, the text described the feeling of discomfort one might have on an airplane. That would be especially true when other passengers were sneezing and coughing and the person next to you had bad breath. That experience was somewhat like what people with OCD feel all of the time.
