Today's video discusses how symptoms of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder may emerge during narcissistic abuse as way to keep the survivor focused on his/her internal experience rather than the despairing abuse they are experiencing from the narcissist. I describe the 4 main features of obsessional thoughts: 1) intrusive, 2) recurrent, 3) unwanted, and 4) inappropriate.
Ian Osborn's book "Tormenting thoughts and secrete rituals: The hidden epidemic of obsessive-compulsive disorder" is referenced.
