Behavioral treatment in two cases of obsessive-compulsive disorder with concomitant bipolar affective disorder
L Baer, WE Minichiello and MA Jenike
The authors describe two cases of obsessive-compulsive disorder with
concomitant bipolar affective disorder. Behavior therapy consisting of in
vivo exposure plus response prevention controlled the obsessive- compulsive
symptoms only after the affective illness was well controlled
pharmacologically.
