OCD and Tactile Sensory Disorder

My 9 year old dislikes all clothing but will wear dresses. I recently read articles about Strep infections and possible links to inflammation of the brain that can induce sensory issues. I also read about PANDAS which is a autoimmune disorder assoc with Strep. But I hit a brick wall when trying to find Doctors that understand it or will try and help me diagnose our daughter to see if this could be the link to all the Tactile, OCD, and anxiety issues.

Does anyone have any advice or other info assoc with OCD, Tactile, and anxiety?


Our Daughter also is allergic to peanuts... another major challenge to control.

Thanks

There's hope

Hi,
I have recently found out about a nutritional supplement, not a drug, that helps with these kinds of disorders. It's called EMPowerplus. You can find out about it at www.truehope.com. You can read about studies that have been done in OCD cases and also Autism, as well as many other mental illnesses. Take the time to check it out. I'm currently giving it to my 6-year-old who suffers from ADD and ODD (Oppositional Defiant Disorder). It has really helped him. I know a lot of other people who have been helped by it as well.
Good luck!

OCD/PANDAS
by: Michelle

Hi there!! I'm 19 years old and suffer from OCD and PANDAS. After getting my tonsils removed my OCD and strep is under control. I used to get strep every 2 weeks and my OCD was off the charts. After getting my tonsils out I can now control my OCD and live a normal life. If you have any questions feel free to email me. I'd love to hear from you.

OCD & SPD
by: Anonymous

My daughter has Autism and is nonverbal but she also has to touch everything including corners for at least four times before moving on her way. Does anyone else have children that do this and how do you help them over come these issues. It is controlling her life and everyone else around. I know that it is OCD but because she is nonverbal we can not find anyone to help us with her problems. We also believe that it has some to do with Sensory issues. I spend 5 hours each day getting her dressed in the morning and ready for bed at night. Any suggestions.
