The exercise would have been stopped if found to be too traumatic long ago. The people who attend are there by choice. There is no force.

I heard that gradual exposure is one route to resolving OCD tendencies. Is an exhibition really the place to do such a thing? I don't like the sideshow mentality of that.

There is no rhyme or reason to the impact that OCD can have upon a family. Glad to see that attention is finally being paid to this issue which plagues so many but which has received so little attention throughout the years.

For a long time it seemed to be swept under the rug. Thanks to the organizers for making this happen and getting the word out for those of us who do not have the resources to do it ourselves.
