Summary

Having OCD is hard enough, but being a kid or teenager with OCD is even harder. Many children with OCD think they are the only ones suffering with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. They don’t realize that OCD in kids is much more common than they think! They struggle alone and many wonder how on earth they are supposed to beat OCD. ***This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be used to replace the guidance of a qualified professional.Visit my website at www.ATparentingSurvival.comInterested in my AT Parenting Community Membership?

0:11.0	Welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast. Today I'm going to be doing something
0:18.2	a little bit different and I'm actually interviewing somebody. I am interviewing Curie who is a 12 year old actually since we've
0:26.7	recorded this she's actually 13 and she has agreed to come on and talk about
0:31.8	her experiences with her OCD.
