A woman with persistent obsessive-compulsive rituals showed limited improvement with exposure therapy, because of her refusal to comply fully with treatment and a lack of homework practice. She was negativistic towards therapists. Following a relapse, she was asked to try anti-exposure and to increase rituals. Paradoxically, this led to marked self exposure to the feared situation, and self-imposed response prevention, with resultant improvement, whereas anti-exposure instructions are generally anti-therapeutic in obsessive-compulsive disorder.
一名患有持续性强迫仪式行为的女性,由于拒绝完全配合治疗且缺乏家庭作业练习,接受暴露疗法后改善有限。她对治疗师持消极态度。复发后,她被要求尝试反暴露并增加仪式行为。矛盾的是,这导致她明显地自我暴露于恐惧情境,并自我实施反应阻止,结果病情得到改善,而在强迫症中,反暴露指令通常具有反治疗作用。
