Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 288: Natasha Daniels Talks About How to Help Kids with Anxiety or OCD · 5 Apr 2022 podcast

And and sadly, the more we intuitively just reassure our kids or we accommodate them by giving them access to whatever they need to do for their compulsion, the OCD grows.

And so

Instead of kind of swooping in and fixing that or teaching them that they need to swoop in and fix it, go wash your hands, go organize the pillows, go do whatever you need to do to feel better.

We teach them not to do that.

And to sit in discomfort.

And I'll give you a quick example just to make it concrete.

And I use my kids a lot and they give me permission.

So my son, who has all my kids having well, my teen doesn't have O C D according to her, and she doesn't like not not intensely, but

My son gets images stuck in his head and he gets songs stuck in his head.

And for me, that happens to me too.

But I just sing along with them and it'll be like annoying to everybody else.

But then it goes away after a few weeks and then a new song is replaced.

For him it's torment because it's an O C D thing.

The song gets stuck in his head and it plays over and over and he believes he can't handle the discomfort.

And so we were in the airport, we're just traveling, and he's like

getting angry and he's twelve and getting really irritated and kind of throwing his bag around and I, you know, I heard a song and I can't get out of my head and mom is still there and he's like kind of tearing up.

And I, you know, my approach is

Okay, for every minute, I would just want you to start singing it more in your head.

So totally counterintuitive.

Because we would think one, we might just discount it and just be like, you know, we all get songs stuck in our head.
