Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi

I admire your concern.
OCD make disturb thought process and due to this unable to maintain proper concentration. ultimately lead to memory problem and not able to remember.

Once symptoms of OCD are under control then all memory power will reverse and able to do so well in study.


For that proper treatment of OCD is must.

OCD can be treated with drugs like SSRI and benzodiazapine.

In SSRI drugs like fluoxetine and fluoxamine are good to treat OCD.


There are psychotherapy treatment for OCD like cognitive behavior therapy and exposure and response prevention therapy.

Selection is based in clinical profile of the patient.

So consult best psychiatrist near by and get well soon.
Thank you.
