There are quite a few self help books on OCD that are available. I would first recommend Dr. Ian Osborne's book The Hidden Epidemic of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. This book is written by a doctor who had a bout with the disorded while in medical school. I would also recommend Dr. Edna Foa's book titled Stop Obsessing. J. Schwartz's book titled Brain Lock is also very useful. Check out one of the various web pages on OCD....quite informative. For a somewhat comical insight into OCD you can read Just Checking by Emily Colas. I hope this information will help you!! Don't give up....keep up the fight!!!
