Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a condition in which someone has uncontrollable, excessive thoughts (obsessions) that can lead to repetitive behaviors (compulsions). Someone who is diagnosed with OCD may find themselves in a cycle of repeating certain behaviors to neutralize the obsessive thoughts. This can be time consuming, and may interfere with a person’s daily life.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a condition that can develop in some people after going through a shocking, scary, or dangerous event. While it is normal to experience adverse and/or emotional reactions after experiencing trauma, over time these symptoms should regulate themselves and eventually get better. Someone with PTSD, however, may experience worsening of symptoms, in which the symptoms are lasting for months or years after the event and may start interfering with their daily life.
