Account of Research Sources

In the past i have read books about OCD, so i have and idea of what it is like. i knew what sought of behaviours, someone with OCD would carry out so this has helped to the understanding of the group. I did however do some further research into the subject by looking up stories and cases of the condition. An example of this was a man who had a phobia of urine. His OCD consisted of washing himself reppetivly until he felt safe in his own mind.

A film starring Nicholas Cage called Matchstick men uses OCD. It was helpful watching this as now I know more of the symptoms and can understand it better as I have seen it in a movie.
