To enhance this idea, patients are instructed to make a graphic representation of what their OCD looks or feels likes, and discuss this with the group. For example, one person drew a figure of himself surrounded by an amoeba like bacteria creature. Another young man pictured himself being cornered in an alley by a huge fireball. Unlike adult treatment for OCD, a greater emphasis is typically placed on the principle of detachment and viewing the OCD as an enemy that needs to be defeated.
