Product Description:
** The only OCD book with a companion book for children** Up and Down the Worry Hill, ISBN 0967734703.
Does your child have uncontrollable worries and senseless rituals? Do you feel helpless and frustrated as you struggle to understand and help your child stop the bizarre doubts and habits that take over his mind and his life? Your child may be one of millions of children suffering from OCD. Now, there is hope and help for your child.
Dr. Aureen Wagner brings you the latest scientific advances in the treatment of this beguiling disorder, along with her many years of experience in treating children and teenagers. Using the metaphor of the Worry Hill, for which she has received international recognition, Dr. Wagner presents a powerful step-by-step approach that countless children have used successfully to regain control from OCD. She provides parents and children with the blueprint to take charge of and master OCD. Her skill, compassion and expert guidance will give you new hope, energy and resolve to conquer OCD.
Part I (Chapters 1-6) covers the essential facts about OCD, its diagnosis, causes and treatments. Knowing the facts is the first step to mastery of OCD. In Part I, Dr. Wagner discusses the various ways in which OCD can invade your child's thoughts and behaviors and how to tell normal fears and habits apart from OCD and other conditions. You will learn about the Vicious Cycle of Avoidance that fuels OCD and about treatment with Exposure and Ritual Prevention (ERP). You will learn about medication options available today for OCD and when it may be appropriate to consider them for your child.
In Part II (Chapters 7-14), Dr. Wagner lays out the master plan and a child-friendly approach to helping your child overcome OCD. Dr. Wagner presents a series of steps that will help you systematically tackle OCD. You will learn how to take charge of your lives, take back control from OCD and take care of yourself so that you can take better care of your child. You will also find strategies for the unique parenting challenges that OCD brings and an approach to helping your child through schooling issues. Each chapter ends with answers to Frequently-Asked Questions.

I bought this book along with "Up and Down the Worry Hill" and it was very useful, especially as I knew very little about OCD. I would recommend it, especially the part about OCD and School.

If your child has OCD, make sure you invest in this book. I purchased several books and this one is hands-down the best no matter what your child's obsessions/compulsions or what stage you are at from first recognizing the disorder to going through the therapy.
As other reviewers have noted, it is easy to read and understand. It is also very complete and includes obsessions/compulsions not covered in other books I have read. It answers questions like "normal vs. OCD: What's the difference" ... Read More

This book is very easy to read. It is very comprehensive. It is very informative. It is objective. It is my constant companion lately. My son's therapist admitted that I know much more about OCD than she does and is now reading the book.

Every parent with a child that has OCD MUST read this book!! The sooner the better! After realizing my son had OCD I jumped on the internet only to feel sad and hopeless for my son's future. Thank goodness for Dr. Wagner's book! I read it cover to cover and put everything she suggested into play immediately!! Her book also gave me hope and made me realize I was a huge part of my son's recovery. Loaded with support, information and facts, this book became my "OCD Bible" and made a huge impact on getting ... Read More

As a parent of a child with OCD, it is possible to become 'compulsive' about trying to educate yourself about the illness to help your child. This book is a comprehensive guide that helps to ask and answer your questions. There are many books out there on the subject but this book is the BEST one.
