Son with ocd and our family

[RaguaParticipant]

My son with ocd is my much younger 2nd child and he has these horrible ocd intrusive thoughts and I don’t know what to do, I just feel like crying because I love him and I feel guilty I can’t hel and it’s destroying our family. Can someone please respond?
