My daughter is diagnosed with OCD. She’ll be starting her third year in college - we didn’t think she’d make it her first semester, but she’s doing okay - but struggles.
She has a real hard time reading some of the research papers she is assigned.
“Well honey - just skip the words you don’t understand and by the time you’re done with the sentence or the paragraph you’ll have the gist of it.”
“Dad - you don’t understand. I have to know EVERY SINGLE WORD - I can’t just “skip it”! So she plows through the readings with the dictionary app running. I feel sad for her - but she is bright, and a hard worker.
She’s learning far more valuable lessons that way than the material she’s studying.
She will go far in life.
get your child on magnesium glycinate and/or malate. we are all extremely depleted in mag and when so, you see ocd, anxiety, depression and a host of other symptoms.
