The issue many of you are having is that you don't get her point of view. It seems ridiculous that the death of a loved one (and we've probably all lost someone) would trigger such screwed up and extreme behavior. The issue with OCD is that it's self-reinforcing. The bad thoughts are there, she does something to try and avoid feeling so bad, but it doesn't permanently stop the bad feeling, so she does it more. People are genetically prone to this - and anything can cause it to trigger.
Whats weird is that is not so weird......yeah its creepy, but not hard to understand! Loosing someone is soooooo hard.......May she find comfort and understanding, she seems to already have a piece of that from her son......<3
The little boy is an old soul because the mother isn't acting like an adult capable of taking care of a kid. SOMEONE has to be the mature one in the house...
Having OCD does not mean she isn't "acting like an adult". She is an adult, so she acts like one. They are both mature. Being mentally ill does not mean you aren't mature, it means you are mentally ill.
I seen this episode last night. I have learned that sooner or later ,you have to let go of the past and move on. No matter how hard it may seen. Letting go can be the beginning of healing from emotional bruises.
She can't help it. Something in her brain is like a broken record, that keeps making her do what she does. She needs help, she needs to face her disorder so that she can finally stop; for her and her kids.

this isn't ocd this lady is just fuckin nuttier than squirrel shit someone needs to lock her up in a mental facility and child protective services need to take her kid before she hurts him
she needs to have someone else take the clothes and throw them away or burn them. that would stop the ritual. she's lucky she has something simple to solve.
@michaelforever33 I figued it out! The band is called "Blank and Jones" and the song is called "Beyond Time." There are several versions/remixes of this song. Exce[t the one they play in this episode is called the "ambient version"
My heart goes out to Helen and her children.

@EvilBunniexxx that wouldn't be an adequate way of controlling the anxiety. that would just cause it to be displaced onto something else.
it surprises me just how ignorant people can be to mental health issues.
