Not Your Usual Ocd Posted: 05-01-04 11:32am
I work for a assertive community treatment
team, I have been working with a gentalman
who presents with what apperes to me as
some ocd type behavior, mostly around
deacation. He presents with some o/c with
numbers which started around age 10 per
family report, its defacaton peice is
what has me stumped. He has been treated
for mosty thought disorders, I think the
ocd peice has been overlooked for years.
Can't seem to find much info just looking
for info, insight suggestions???

Deacation? Defacaton?
Since neither word/spelling is in my
dictionary as such & since I can think
of at least 3 (defacing, deca as in 10 and
toilet issues) possible meanings/words you
might mean & as I am sure that there
may be others - please explain exactly
what you mean.
Then hopefully I or someone else might be
able to assist.

Could you go in more depth? What thought
disorders does he have? Number counting-
that could be associated w/ocd (constantly
counting street signs, have to have even
numbers, etc) and what are his behaviors
that you are concerned about?

I just spent about a 1/2 hour writing you
a great case presentation but it did not
post for some reason. I'm intrested in
what you think i'll give it another shot
tomorrow night. Thanks for you reply.
