Hi

I had gone through your query.

OCD means obsessive compulsive disorder.

It is very difficult to treat.

Many cases require proper continuous treatment up to many years.

If you have symptoms after stopping of medicines that means you still require to take medicines.

If you are better on treatment then my advise to take it regularly.

Various modalities of treatment available for obsessive compulsive disorder.

Cognitive behavior therapy is now emerging psychotherapy for OCD.

Psychotherapy with medicines will give more beneficial results.

I hope i have answered your query.

Please feel free to ask.

Thank you.

Get well soon.
