dear Bluey moon, it can be true that if a parent has OCD then the kids can get it as well, but neither of my parents had OCD and I was the only one in the family, where I had 4 siblings that didn't get it, plus as I said my twin didn't have it and we were obviously in the womb for 9 months.
The same applies to parents with depression and if they may have schizophrenia this doesn't mean that their children will also get it, and again neither of my parents had it either.
What the net says is open to so much speculation, so people suddenly assume that they could have what the net says, so I could google 'why my marriage broke up' mentioning long depression, OCD and drinking as self medication, and what will it will come up with, I'd hate to think, but here I am replying to people on this site for more than 10 years, and I don't believe I am neurotic, nor or you.
As your psychiatrist said ' the key to me getting better is me! ', and I mean no harm by saying this, but try and keep on googling illness's, because this will cause a relapse time after time, and it's not healthy for you.
Sorry but you need to well. Geoff. x
