Question
My child is five years old. He doesn’t like competition, is very compliant, but has a very poor memory, and cannot remember ancient poems even after repeating them dozens of times. He can sit quietly and watch TV all day at home without crying or fussing. If other children come to his house, he won’t grab his own toys but will play with others instead. His ability to express himself is also poor. I’m worried that there might be an issue with his intelligence.
Answer
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a neurosis caused by psychological factors, usually accompanied by obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. It falls under the category of early mental diseases and can be treated with psychological intervention, which has certain effects. We know that pediatric neurological diseases can have a significant impact on children, and if not treated promptly or with inappropriate treatment methods, the condition may rapidly worsen, posing serious harm to the child. Therefore, it is recommended that parents take their child to a professional hospital for regular treatment, which is the most important thing.
