[F4LT] Living with OCD (Learn the basics from a patient)
Living with OCD (Learn the basics from a patient)
Learn about OCD, a serious mental illness that affects millions Free tutorial Rating: 4.7 out of 5 (21 ratings) 1,003 students 41min of on-demand video Description Learn about OCD - obsessive-compulsive disorder, a serious mental illness that affects millions of people in the United States alone. It is estimated to affect 1 to 2 % of the world population. Many people do not fully understand OCD and the way people deal with OCD is not necessarily the same as it is portrayed in the media. The course will talk about its two main components, namely intrusive thoughts and compulsions, and how to deal with them. Intrusive thoughts are words, images, memories, imaginations, that seem to invade a person's mind. Compulsions, which can be mental or physical, are the rituals a person with OCD does in order to try to relieve anxiety. The teacher, Laurent Cousineau, will also talk about how OCD affected his own life. Laurent struggled with OCD for about 20 years, starting around the age of 9. Laurent suffered from many different types of intrusive thoughts and compulsions over the years. In 2017, his OCD was so bad that it took up a big part of his day. https://www.udemy.com/course/living-with-ocd/ Enjoy! |
