Abstrakt: Compulsive syndromes, especially obsessive-compulsive disorder, are much more common than previously believed. The behaviours that are a part of these syndromes can lead to physiologically threatening conditions whose medical consequences range from minor to fatal. It is crucial that not only mental health professionals, but all health profes sionals better understand the nature and consequences of compulsive disorders and their importance to general health.
