The video shows a 360-degree view of the brain of a person with severe OCD. But for a small subset of individuals with severe, intractable, and debilitating OCD, other approaches are needed. Most cases of OCD can be effectively treated with a combination of pharmacotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. This year’s first-place video certainly fits the bill while highlighting encouraging efforts to help people with the most severe and hard-to-treat form of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), a psychiatric illness marked by recurrent unwanted or distressing thoughts and repetitive behaviors. The winners of the “Show Us Your BRAINs!” Photo and Video contest are chosen each year based on their eye-catching ability to capture the creative spirit of the Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies® (BRAIN) Initiative.
