Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The client usually seeks treatment only when obsessions become too overwhelming or when compulsions interfere with daily life (work, ADLs, or leisure) or both. Clients are hospitalized only when they have become completely unable to carry out their daily routines. Most treatment is outpatient. The client often reports that rituals began many years before; some begin as early as childhood. The more responsibility the client has as he or she gets older, the more the rituals interfere with the ability to fulfill these responsibilities.
