Summary

It can take so much energy to find a qualified OCD specialist to finally assess and diagnose your child with OCD. But what are you to do when your child rejects the OCD diagnosis?

0:00.0	Welcome to the AT parenting survival podcast, where you get help and guidance through the chaos of parenting a child with anxiety or OCD.
0:12.0	This show is for educational purposes and is not intended to
0:15.3	replace the guidance of a qualified professional. Here's your host, child therapist,
0:20.6	Natasha Daniels. Well hello there and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast.
0:27.8	Today I want to talk to you about something that I hear often in my community and that is your child rejecting an OCD diagnosis or
0:39.2	rejecting that something is OCD.
0:43.0	And that's hard because as parents,
0:46.0	we want to help our kids.

1:24.3	Just go to treat my OCD.com that is treat my OCD.com
1:29.2	I'll also leave a link in the show notes. So let's talk about this idea of our kids rejecting
1:37.0	their OCD diagnosis and what to do about it as parents. The first thing that I want to mention, it's really important that you got
1:47.6	assessed by an OCD specialist. So we want to start with the fact that hopefully the diagnosis is accurate.
1:55.2	More often than not, kids are being misdiagnosed with other disorders when it is actually
2:01.1	OCD or OCD is being missed. So it's pretty rare for OCD to be diagnosed
