Listener questions and comments: Virginia - I have a 14-year-old daughter and she washes her hands obsessively. What can I do to help her? Richard - Are there supplements that can help with OCD? Teresa - Does anxiety lead to paranoia? Bonnie - My daughter has OCD, she's 27 and lives at home. With COVID, it seemed to get worse, and it's at a point that it's taking over her life. What should I do? Heidi - My granddaughter only eats white chicken, white rice and sourdough bread. She seems very picky. What should I do? Kathy – I have been very anxious since WWII.
