OCD
is
a
terrible
neurological
and
genetic
disorder
that
cannot
be
cured
.
At
best
,
it
can
be
managed
.
And
,
as
we
ll
see
,
managing
the
disorder
comes
down
to
managing
one
s
values
.
592
The
first
thing
the
psychiatrists
on
this
project
do
is
tell
the
kids
that
they
re
to
accept
the
imperfections
of
their
compulsive
desires
.
What
that
means
,
as
one
example
,
is
that
when
Imogen
becomes
flooded
with
horrible
thoughts
of
her
family
dying
,
she
is
to
accept
that
her
family
may
actually
die
and
that
there
s
nothing
she
can
do
about
it
;
simply
put
,
she
is
told
that
what
happens
to
her
is
not
her
fault
.
Josh
is
forced
to
accept
that
over
the
long
term
,
equalizing
all
of
his
behaviors
to
make
them
symmetrical
is
actually
destroying
his
life
more
than
occasional
panic
attacks
would
.
And
Jack
is
reminded
that
no
matter
what
he
does
,
germs
are
always
present
and
always
infecting
him
.
593
The
goal
is
to
get
the
kids
to
recognize
that
their
values
are
not
rational
that
in
fact
their
values
are
not
even
theirs
,
but
rather
are
the
disorder
s
and
that
by
fulfilling
these
irrational
values
they
are
actually
harming
their
ability
to
function
in
life
.

The
next
step
is
to
encourage
the
kids
to
choose
a
value
that
is
more
important
than
their
OCD
value
and
to
focus
on
that
.
595
For
Josh
,
it
s
the
possibility
of
not
having
to
hide
his
disorder
from
his
friends
and
family
all
the
time
,
the
prospect
of
having
a
normal
,
functioning
social
life
.
For
Imogen
,
it
s
the
idea
of
taking
control
over
her
own
thoughts
and
feelings
and
being
happy
again
.
And
for
Jack
,
it
s
the
ability
to
leave
his
house
for
long
periods
of
time
without
suffering
traumatic
episodes
.
596
With
these
new
values
held
front
and
center
in
their
minds
,
the
teenagers
set
out
on
intensive
desensitization
exercises
that
force
them
to
live
out
their
new
values
.
Panic
attacks
ensue
;
tears
are
shed
;
Jack
punches
an
array
of
inanimate
objects
and
then
immediately
washes
his
hands
.
But
by
the
end
of
the
documentary
,
major
progress
has
been
made
.
Imogen
no
longer
needs
to
tap
every
surface
she
comes
across
.
She
says
,
There
are
still
monsters
in
the
back
of
my
mind
,
and
there
probably
always
will
be
,
but
they
re
getting
quieter
now
.
Josh
is
able
to
go
periods
of
twenty
-
five
to
thirty
minutes
without
equalizing
his
behaviors
between
both
sides
of
his
body
.
And
Jack
,
who
makes
perhaps
the
most
improvement
,
is
actually
able
to
go
out
to
restaurants
and
drink
out
of
bottles
and
glasses
without
washing
them
first
.
Jack
sums
up
well
what
he
learned
:
I
didn
t
choose
this
life
;
I
didn
t
choose
this
horrible
,
horrible
condition
.
But
I
get
to
choose
how
to
live
with
it
;
I
have
to
choose
how
to
live
with
it
.
597
A
lot
of
people
treat
being
born
with
a
disadvantage
,
whether
OCD
or
small
stature
or
something
very
different
,
as
though
they
were
screwed
out
of
something
highly
valuable
.

They
feel
that
there
s
nothing
they
can
do
about
it
,
so
they
avoid
responsibility
for
their
situation
.
They
figure
,
I
didn
t
choose
my
crappy
genetics
,
so
it
s
not
my
fault
if
things
go
wrong
.
599
And
it
s
true
,
it
s
not
their
fault
.
600
But
it
s
still
their
responsibility
.
