A person in my family has OCD and no one has ever brought it up. I don't feel safe around them especially when they are driving. They seem sniff their fingers or touch their face so many times in a row to where I swear we will crash. They do it outside the car but I don't really care or notice as much. Every time it happens I feel so embarrassed for them and sad to where I just want to scream! It's been going on since I was little but didn't know what it could be till a couple years ago.
How do you bring it up or even confront someone that they must have OCD? I just want them to get help but I think they have too much pride. ![]() |

Do you have any family other than your dad?
I don't know if it would make it worse if you went to someone else or not. I have never dealt with that. Wish I could help more, sorry. |

Wish I could help more, sorry. i dont associate with my step family so, no. he has lived with it for 50 years so, i guess he can tolerate it but it's so annoying and i dont feel safe when he is having an episode while driving, ugh. what is it like to have serious OCD? why dont people just take the meds for it? there are meds right... just talk to him straight up. im not sure at a restaurent is the best place though, unless you are alone with him. yeah, they do have meds for it. |
