Millions of people in Germany alone suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the number is growing every day. But where does an obsessive-compulsive disorder begin? When are washing, control, order or repetition compulsions more than just a harmless tic? And at what point are thoughts that recur over and over again in need of treatment? Klaus Bernhardt explains what lies behind compulsions, how they develop and when those affected should seek help. Based on the latest scientific findings and with the help of concrete examples, he gives sufferers tools for self-help that are suitable for everyday use. In addition, he describes many helpful therapeutic approaches that are unfortunately still used far too rarely. With them, it is possible to get obsessive-compulsive disorders under control much more quickly and often even to overcome them permanently.
