These people are not perverts or pedophiles, but normal individuals with a brain-based condition called obsessive-compulsive disorder or OCD. Most of us have heard of OCD, but few realize that OCD can cause people to have terrifying sexual thoughts that just won't go away. Many therapists are baffled by these symptoms and may spin their wheels trying to get to the root of problem. The good news is that there are effective, short-term treatments to help sufferers overcome these demons and start feeling better again.
