25.01.2022 During this pandemic I’ve watched most, perhaps all, of my clients non preferred behaviours escalate. It’s even worse for those with OCD, autism and mental impairment. There’s also an extra layer for those who are also germaphobic. Escalation of habits will also cause a rise in anxiety which can cause hiding (literally staying under the doona for days/weeks), cutting, mood swings, agitation and outbursts. The duration of isolation has now well passed the coping of many and ...sadly, but supportingly, some have been hospitalised, some have gone to supportive respite centres, some have returned to drugs, and some remain trying their best not to have violent outbursts or disappear into the safety of their rooms. As you can imagine this creates a very difficult loop to break, especially when they have scientific evidence for cause of concern. This article explains a little about OCD from an 11 year olds mind. If you like I may post more articles on other cognitive and behavioural areas that have escalated over the last few months.
