About Your OCD Will Hate This Book

OCD is one of the most common, and debilitating, mental disorders, afflicting an estimated 3 to 8 million Americans. Though popular media tends to focus on the condition’s zany quirks—like Detective Monk’s obsessive handwashing—OCD manifests in a wide variety of ways, many of which are hidden from view and utterly destructive. OCD sufferers have vastly higher rates of depression and suicide. Left unchecked, this disease wreaks havoc on lives.

But there is an effective treatment. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) involves exposure to OCD triggers in a safe environment for increasingly long durations. And no one knows ERP better than Nathan Peterson.

The internet’s #1 OCD guide, Nathan has already helped hundreds of thousands of followers regain control over their lives. In this, his first book, he guides readers through effective treatment, then gives them a framework to maintain and build upon the gains they have made.

Your OCD Will Hate This Book will be an essential resource for OCD sufferers—suitable for use both as a companion text that accompanies individualized work with a therapist, or as a stand-in for readers who need inspiration and support, whether they are early in their OCD journey or trying to manage an inevitable flare-up.
