Why do some victims of child molestation develop OCD symptoms such as extreme cleanliness, hand-washing etc?

OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - an illness where the sufferer must repeat an action over and over and over again because it never feels like it's been done or done properly - our socialisation teaches us that we must wash to be clean - we must cleanse ourselves until the 'dirt' is gone ..... how does a victim feel clean? how do they clean the 'dirt' off? .... the answer is through counselling, a lot of love and understanding and time ..... this devastating and despicable act against another person is a crime against humanity .... these poor people keep trying to get 'clean' to wash it off and move on with their lives - but they're stuck because the 'dirt' is not just on their bodies it's on their minds........all they know they can do is wash and wash and wash and wash and wash .........Why do some victims of child molestation develop OCD symptoms such as extreme cleanliness, hand-washing etc?

It is not restricted to the group of people you have mentioned they are psycopaths and needs treatment.However if you watch them closely you will notice that they do not do anything by themselves to keep up the cleanliness,they simply pester on others other than the only thing that they wash their hands all by themselves,this leaves others irritated while they are least concerned about the feelings of the others.They are mostly very unsocial can not be in a team.
