...I posted over the Christmas holidays about my daughter doing freaky things with extra handwashing and too much lotion and got some good advice. I decided to have her see a therapist through my work Employee Assistance Program. (free to me) We went yesterday and I am hopeful. The therapist said that my dd is full of anxiety and that is most of her problem. She said she was pretty sure it was not OCD but it could become so if she didn't learn some coping behaviors. We have 3 more appointments that are covered but I have a feeling this could become longer. My dh hates spending money on this sort of thing.
Anyway, my dd seemed much happier yesterday after her session - she is still doing the washing thing but this appointment was for diagosis.
This seems to have been a good idea,
