Those suffering have often been regarded as borderline psychotic, and considered as requiring drastic interventions such as very high doses of medication or even Psychosurgery. Paul will describe the phenomenology of OCD and how this relates to psychological theories of the development and maintenance of OCD. The link between current psychological understanding and treatment will be described and consideration given to scalability of such treatment.  Complex factors in the treatment of OCD will be described, including some surprising results in terms of treatment outcomes.\n\nChallacombe, F., Oldfield, V. & Salkovskis, P.M.

The outcome of that announcement has been very disappointing. A mass of evidence of the importance of social factors in causation and treatment of major mental illness has now accumulated, as was apparent even during the Industrial Revolution. Although biological evidence is important, and cannot be dismissed, the significance of the social has been noted by Sir Robin Murray FRS. We should follow the evidence.\n\n4.30 pm\nClose\n\nCPD certificates will be awarded to attendees\n\n \n\n
