That is more accurate for those with late-onset OCD.
Don’t dive down the rabbit hole, and don’t distort... many things are possible... buuuut are they probable? Tackle one thing at a time, and may the odds be ever in your favor.
Where dis you here this? I gave never read this.
I'm a nurse and have never heard this. I know other conditions increase the risk of dementia, such as a history of concussions or other head injuries and Down Syndrome, but I've never heard this about OCD. Make sure you vet your sources. If Harvard Medical School for instance, that's much more reliable than some random website.
