As a 19-year-old woman who has dealt with OCD symptoms myself, I understand the challenges of managing this condition, especially in young individuals. It can be tough to see a 13-year-old struggle with OCD, but know that you are not alone in this. It’s important to offer them love and support, and to seek professional help as soon as possible. Talking to a therapist or counselor who specializes in OCD can make a huge difference. Remember to take care of yourself too, and don’t hesitate to reach out for support. You are doing your best, and that’s more than enough. Wishing you and the 13-year-old the strength and courage to overcome this challenge.
