VerbalBehavior] Obsessive Compulsive Behavior

[Guest guest]

Someone had posted that OCD spectrum kids go from one obsession to the next.

We have found that to be true. My son was obsessed with videos and DVDs for

quite a while. Then he was obsessed with computers and electronics. With

those obsessions, we have been able to keep the behaviors under control, but

his desire for the shirts has been WAY stronger.

Thank you all for the responses to our problem. I got some great ideas, and

I will give some of them a try. We started 5 mg Lexapro this morning, and I

expect it will take a combination of meds and behavioral interventions to

get the " shirt situation " under control.

THanks,

Geraldine
