Some symptoms, such as the nagging feeling you have left the stovetop burner on, can be mildly distracting.

He also helps readers differentiate between OCD and other psychological illnesses such as depression. From the latest treatments to important facts on the medications currently available and how they work, \u003cb\u003eGetting Control\u003c\/b\u003e is thorough, concise, and positive--a lifesaver for anyone whose well-being is affected by OCD.Getting ControlForeword\u003cbr\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003ePreface to the Revised Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter One: What Is OCD?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat is OCD?How Common Is OCD?\u003cbr\u003eWhat Causes OCD?\u003cbr\u003eWhat Are the Subtypes of OCD?\u003cbr\u003eWhat Problems Are Confused with OCD?\u003cbr\u003eWhat Disorders May Be Related to OCD?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2: Treatment of OCD\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBehavior Therapy for OCD\u003cbr\u003eMedication Treatment for OCD\u003cbr\u003eOther Treatments for OCD\u003cbr\u003ePrinciples of Behavior Therapy\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3: Test Yourself\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAssessing the Type of Your OCD Symptoms\u003cbr\u003eMeasuring the Severity of Your OCD\u003cbr\u003eAssessing the Strength of Your Belief in Your Obsessions or Compulsions\u003cbr\u003eAssessing Avoidance Due to OCD\u003cbr\u003eAssessing Depression\u003cbr\u003eInterpreting the Results\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4: Setting Your Goals\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBasic Principles of Setting Long-Term Goals\u003cbr\u003eBasic Principles of Setting Practice Goals\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 5: How to Use Behavior Therapy to Get Control of Your Symptoms\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTechniques to Assist Exposure and Response Prevention\u003cbr\u003eTailoring Behavior Therapy to Your OCD Symptoms\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 6: Staying in Control\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLong-Term Results of Behavior Therapy\u003cbr\u003eGetting the Odds in Your Favor\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 7: Getting Control of Problems Related to OCD\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrichotillomania\u003cbr\u003eSkin Picking\u003cbr\u003eTourette Disorder\u003cbr\u003eExcessive Bodily Worries\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 8: Medications for OCD\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSRI Medications\u003cbr\u003eClomipramine\u003cbr\u003eFluoxetine\u003cbr\u003eFluvoxamine\u003cbr\u003eSertraline\u003cbr\u003eParoxetine\u003cbr\u003eCitalopram\u003cbr\u003eMAOIs\u003cbr\u003eWhat Other Medications Can Help OCD?\u003cbr\u003eCommon Questions About Medications for OCD\u003cbr\u003eCombining Medication with Behavior Therapy\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 9: Your Questions Answered\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 10: For Family, Friends, and Helpers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDealing with Family Members or Friends Who Have OCD\u003cbr\u003eDealing with Family Members or Friends Who Won't Get Help for Their OCD\u003cbr\u003eIf You Asked to be a Helper\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBibliography\u003cbr\u003eAppendix: Self-Rating Forms\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eLee Baer, Ph.D.\u003c\/b\u003e, is an internationally recognized expert in the treatment of OCD and related disorders.
