The shocking story of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, two wealthy college students who murdered a 14-year-old boy in 1924 to prove they were smart enough to get away with it. Their trial, with famed defense attorney Clarence Darrow and Cook County Prosecutor Robert Crowe debating the death penalty and scores of commentators weighing in from the sidelines, set off a national debate about morality and capital punishment.

So what is Pure "O" OCD? It is when we have obsessions without the physical compulsions of traditional OCD. These obsessions usually present themselves as intrusive thoughts, images or urges. The reason this is so distressing is because these thoughts usually go against who we are, or what we believe to be right and moral. They are usually violent or sexual in nature and leave us worried that we may actually be capable of acting some of these thoughts out. Due to the distress and upset caused by these thoughts, many with pure "o" will try to avoid any triggers for their thoughts. If they find it happens most when they are driving, they will stop doing that. They will even avoid entire topics or thoughts that have caused an intrusive thought or image in the past. This can be very debilitating and make it very difficult for us to live our lives. Since these thoughts are upsetting and usually violent or sexual, it can also cause some other cognitive compulsions, like rumination. Once we have had these thoughts or images, we then can't stop worrying that we are possibly bad or capable of doing these things.
Our mind will argue back and forth causing extreme anxiety. But don't fret, there are treatment options! Lots of them! CBT is a treatment great option, as well as CT (cognitive therapy). These are great because they help us change those terrifying thought cycles that we can get stuck in (rumination as well as avoidance). Also, there is exposure and response prevention therapy or ERP. This helps us be around triggering events or topics and slowly calm ourselves down without using our compulsion. It slowly lessens the anxiety around the obsession and removes the power is has over us. Many people report that SSRI's or SNRI's have helped them, so if you are interested in this, please see a psychiatrist to see if this is an option for you. Lastly, there is a new therapy option called ACT or acceptance and commitment therapy that was created specifically for pure "o" OCD.

Even some Christians seem unable to avoid the attraction of this colorful, seductive
world whether its interacting with mediums, astrology, fortune telling, pendants, New
Age, ouiji boards, psychic phenomena, or false visionaries. In an attempt to warn the
faithful about the dangers that lurk behind unhealthy devotions, the Catholic Church
says: "All practices of magic or sorcery, by which one attempts to tame occult powers,
so as to place them at one's service and have a supernatural power over others—even if
this were for the sake of restoring their health—are gravely contrary to the virtue of
religion."

children today have the same gifts but parents are quick to
dismiss them.
