It's especially interesting to see how these things affect children and there seems to be a bit of overlap in the example you mentioned; I know a lot of people with autistic spectrum disorders struggle to cope with changes and that often causes a lot of anxiety for them. Did he have something like Asperger Syndrome as well or was it just OCD?
