OCD for brushing & taking bath. Takes 1 hour and lot of soap. Doesn't have any comfort feeling after bath. Sleeps and wakes late. Refused school due to tough study environment and bullying by girls. Did private 10th. Now in 12th NIOS. Likes Telugu movies, songs - watching scantily clad people dance irritation for parents. Doesn't have self confidence. At times says wants to die. Studies well scoring 90% & above. Likes fancy living. Dad doesn't have regular job since 2008. Not working and living on help from family. We met Turning Point and spent 5000 rs and didn't work. Regular Psychiatry professional folks charge heavily so we went to Nimhans. Now daughter refused to go there. Can we get help ?
Dear sir/ madam, from your description it seems that this young lady needs continuous treatment. Young people often find it difficult to talk to people in crowded settings. Though Nimhans would be a great place to get help, you will probably have to see a private psychiatrist right now till she improves a bit. Also if the environment at home is too critical or too lenient things can worsen. This could require some sessions as a family with a psychiatrist or a psychologist. You can explain the situation to the psych and ask them to give you a discount.
