Leaving the OCD circus : your big ticket out of having to control every little thing / by Pagacz, Kirsten,author.(CARDINAL)626407;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 243-245).""It's like the meanest, wildest monkey running around my head, constantly looking for ways to bite me." That was how Kirsten Pagacz described her OCD to her therapist on their first session when she was well into her 30s--she'd been following orders from this mean taskmaster for 20 years, without understanding why. Initially the tapping and counting and cleaning and ordering brought her comfort and structure, two things lacking in her family life. But it never lasted; the loathsome self-talk only intensified, and the rituals she had to perform got more bizarre. By high school she was anorexic and a substance abuser--common "shadow syndromes" of OCD. By adulthood, she could barely hide her problems and held on to jobs and friends through sheer grit. Help finally came in the form of a miraculously well-timed public service announcement on NPR about OCD--at last her illness had an identity. Leaving the OCD Circus reveals the story of Pagacz's traumatic childhood and the escalation of her disease--demonstrating how OCD works to misshape a life from a very young age--and explains the various tools she used for healing including meditation, cognitive behavioral therapy, yoga, exposure therapy, and medication. Pieces of her art scattered throughout the book add depth and humor to her stories."--"The author's personal story of living with OCD and a guide for others suffering from the disease. Part 2 tells the story of the author's childhood; part 2 introduces the tools she used for healing: such as meditation, cognitive behavioral therapy, medication, exposure therapy, yoga, and others. Readers will learn how OCD works to misshape a life and also how to begin work on their own issues of obsession and compulsion"--

Hoarding : what everyone needs to know / by Steketee, Gail,author.(CARDINAL)369211; Bratiotis, Christiana,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.What is hoarding and hoarding disorder? -- What are the common features of hoarding -- What re the neurocognitive features of hoarding? -- What is the impact of hoarding on sufferers, families, and communities -- How serious is the hoarding problem? -- Why do people hoard? -- What treatments work best for hoarding and acquiring? -- How can family members and other methods help with hoarding? -- How can communities help with hoarding? -- What are the next steps to understand and treat hoarding?"In 2013, the American Psychiatric Association determined that hoarding disorder (HD) is a diagnosable mental health condition. This disorder has been studied only in the past three decades, although information about this surprisingly common problem has been accumulating at a great rate in recent years. In fact, published papers about hoarding have increased from 3 during the first half of the 1990s to 319 in first half of the current decade (2010-2015). This increased rate of published research on hoarding has continued in the past few years. In Dr. Randy Frost and Dr. Tamara Hartl's seminal 1996 paper on the "compulsive hoarding" syndrome, the authors proposed an explanation as to why people hoarded objects in their homes. Remarkably, the information they provided and their explanation stand up well today, even after scores of studies have been conducted on the psychopathology and treatment of hoarding. No doubt this information will continue to be updated in the coming years, but it provides a sound basis for understanding this complex and very serious condition"--
