Obsessions

Every so often in everyday life we become so consumed by obsessions that, beyond a certain point, we find it hard to live a normal life. People who face different kinds of obsessions – such as obsessions with cleanliness, with faith or with collecting – in most cases don't realise that this is a disorder. Moreover, this disorder is fundamentally the result of a biological problem and is not as rare as people think. This is one of the least known truths. So, seeing that obsessive disorder can be treated means taking a very important step towards these patients finding peace. Psychiatrist Dr Oğuz Tan wrote this book based on real patients' stories, explaining the treatment methods and cases of this disorder in a studious yet humorous way.
