hELLO I am a mother of a healthy 28 yr old son that has suffered from OCD since about age 3...I also have found that when he was fully potty trained one week before his 2nd birthday..he began sneaking my grand daughter s diapers...we found that he was wearing them and has he grew older he would use duct tape to keep them. It is now time to intervene, he states he just felt better, that the diapers eased his anxiety and make him feel as if everything that was bothering him would somehow quickly just disappear..He witnessed his little girlfriend at age 4 in the daycare that she had wet herself during nap time and the daycare worker ut her in a diaper instead o putting on a clean change of clothing that brought every day in her back pack, as if the daycare was punishing her for wetting herself...my son is just now starting to open up to me regarding this, he claims it is a fetish to a degree because he looked the word up in the dictionary..He has recently been through some stressful situations an has thought about putting a diaper on but hesitated. But the thought was there. He recently had his iphone stolen during a series of break ins in his neighborhood. hey got his i phone which has not been found. He realized this was messed up thinking he stated so he looked at pictures, read articles and tried to understand why he fet this way and why did the diaper calm him down. he is panicky and scared that the phone will be found and that there is no sexual attraction to diaper wearing by children or adults...he needs help quickly..he is on the verge of a breakdown menatlly, he can t eat or sleep for being afraid that it may be taken wrong if seen b the wrong person. Please I am asking for help and any advice that you possibly offer

Hello, Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common mental health problem. Symptoms typically include recurring thoughts and repetitive actions in response to the recurring thoughts. A common example is recurring thoughts about germs and dirt, with a need to wash your hands repeatedly to clean off the germs. However, there are many other examples like sexual thoughts, counting, checking, orderliness, et cetera. The usual treatments are cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant medicine, or both. Treatment often works well to reduce the symptoms and distress of OCD greatly. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
