Interesting finding…

New Genetic Link to OCD Found

Cutting-edge DNA sequencing has uncovered a striking difference in genetic profiles between children with OCD and their healthy peers.

Researchers found that children with OCD were far more likely to carry rare, spontaneous mutations in their DNA known as copy number variants (CNVs).

These CNVs can delete or duplicate critical regions of DNA, affecting genes that influence brain function and behavior.

Notably, 75% of the variants identified in OCD patients were potentially damaging, while none were found in the control group.

The results challenge long-held assumptions that psychiatric conditions like OCD are primarily inherited.

They suggest that spontaneous genetic changes are a major contributor and may lead to more effective diagnostics and therapies.

As a therapist, I stand behind this. We can often get analysis paralysis when what we need is simple behavior changes to get momentum, relief, success.

We wait for some grand event to change our life.

But life doesn’t change in the big moments - it changes in the quiet ones.

The ones we repeat every single day. That’s where success hides. In the ordinary. In your routine.

A lot of useful information about veteran and non-veteran, male and female, mental health!
