Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders

Abstract

Isaac Itkin can?t get away from his thoughts.

As a lonely twelve-year-old kid with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), everything from studying to looking in the mirror becomes a battle between him and a swarm of unhelpful thoughts.

The strict therapy his mother insists on doesn?t seem to be working, but when a group of friends invites him to join their after-school role-playing game, the thoughts feel a little less loud, and the world feels a little brighter.

But Isaac?s therapist says that exposure to games can have negative effects on kids with OCD, and when his grades slip, his helicopter mother won?t let him play anymore. Now Isaac needs to find a way to prove to himself, to his mother, and to the world that the way to quiet the noise in his head may have been inside him all along.

Recommended for children ages 8 - 12.

Abstract

We have created this booklet to highlight a number of key topics for women with SCI (spinal cord injury) and their families to consider during the perinatal period, defined as the time before conceiving (pre-conception), pregnancy, labour, delivery and postpartum (the first few days and weeks after a baby is born).

The topics covered in this guide are designed as a place to start the conversation with your health care providers as part of planning for your care.
