Are you one of the millions who reside within a secret life, a life which constantly feels out of your own control? Are you plagued by repetitive thoughts and/or actions which interfere with your daily activities? The author lived for more than 40 years with an undiagnosed form of mental illness, a phobia now known as OCD: obsessive-compulsive disorder. His emotional pain and suffering were at times almost unmanageable. In his mid-sixties, the author, a loving husband, father, and accomplished high school teacher and athletic coach, discovered a unique psychologist within the Denver therapeutic community who utilizes a radical but highly successful treatment thats allowed the author to control his OCD symptoms almost 100%. A Secret Life is one of the few books written by an OCD sufferer and describes in detail the pain and chaos living with this illness can cause not just the victim, but those closest to him. This story doesnt stop there, but provides readers with options and advice for dealing with OCD from someone who broke the curse of living a secret life. Now hes ready to share his story in order to help others.
