DESCRIPTION:
David A. Mcmeekin said Interesting book for those looking to understand OCD. I have read the first section of this book "Realism."If you are looking to gain a better understanding of OCD or if you have friends or relatives have OCD I would heartily recommend this book to you. In my case it has given me a good view into the thought processes and struggles of those I know with the disorder.I do not normally read short fiction and never read poetry, so the format itself of this book was a little bit foreign to me. I would like to say that not eve. "Very Telling" according to MaliceFox. This is a great book for those of us who do not have OCD but know or love someone with OCD. It lets you really see what it is like to live with the disorder. Very profound read, and I am wholly glad I purchased a copy. If you know or love someone with OCD this is an amazing introspective into their lives. I would very much recommend this book to anyone, whether you have OCD or know someone with it.. good for people with or without ocd Hannah If you have OCD, you will see yourself in all or some of these very honest creations.If you don't have OCD, reading about it from the sufferer's point of view is the best way to understand.There is a huge variety of work in here, so it's pretty much guaranteed you'll like much if not all of it.
