Common manifestations of OCD include excessive cleaning or handwashing, meticulous arrangement of items, and repetitive checking to ensure orderliness. It is noteworthy that symptoms of OCD may fluctuate in intensity over time and can temporarily subside.
Kate Actress and Philip Karanja, also known as Phil Director, celebrated Njeri’s fourth birthday in December 2023 with an extravagant party, despite their amicable decision to separate in September 2023. The separation marked the end of their longstanding relationship, which, unfortunately, proved to be unsuccessful. Njeri’s age, being four years old, underscores the early onset of her struggle with OCD, shedding light on the importance of understanding and addressing mental health issues in children.
