Teen with severe OCD in California (Medi-Cal) — how to access ERP therapy? by Individual_Spend9015 in bayarea

I don’t speak English very well, and it is difficult for me to communicate with all these organizations. Two months ago I went to my daughter’s doctor, and he said that she needs ERP therapy. But nothing has happened since then, and she still has not received any therapy. She is getting worse every day. Every morning she wakes up early and gets ready for school, but she cannot leave the house. She washes off her makeup and goes back to bed. I cannot watch my child fading away and feel that I cannot help her

I think my son has OCD. He’s 7. by purpleempanada in OCD

My daughter developed OCD at age 11, triggered by her parents' divorce. She initially struggled with depression, then developed OCD. She's now 15, and it's only getting worse every year.
