8. Why are you so convinced |
|
that a lawsuit from him will set her back to the beginning of her recovery? Is she seeing a therapist or psychiatrist? Is she in a support group for OCD? Is she taking SSRIs?
The reality is that OCD is very difficult to recover from and CBT (often combined with SSRIs) is the only treatment that has been shown to be effective. Even with CBT treatment, she will have relapses (with or without her brother's behavior).
I hate to say this but, while I appreciate your concern, you are still in enabler mode. You can't protect her from her brother nor can you protect her from relapses.
As for the lawsuit, would he even have a claim after more than 10 years?
