Topaz1968 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 My son is so excited as my parents are coming into town today along with some other family tomorrow and Monday. His intrusive thoughts have been more apparent today and he is on his 4th day of Abx. I am wondering if OCD symptoms can increase when excited, even if they are bad thoughts. I know his tics used to increase when he got excited, but not sure about the thoughts. Does anyone ever experience this with their child? Thanks Rachel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worried_Dad Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Yep, excitement is a form of stress in this context, I think. Our son's symptoms (tics especially, but OCD too) used to spike when he got very excited about something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
