Hello Mr. Prashant,



From your symptoms I think it is possible that you may be suffering from another exacerbation (worsening) of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).



OCD is usually a chronic illness, which means that it does not get cured completely. With medicines, it can be brought in control (like Diabetes or Hypertension), but during stressful situations the symptoms may return. You seem to be facing some stress at home and at work; probably this stress has triggered another episode of OCD.



Another, though less likely, possibility is that you are currently having an anxiety disorder other than OCD. A confirmed diagnosis would require a face-to-face consultation.



It is very likely that you will benefit from the same medicines that had helped you earlier. I recommend you visit a psychiatrist for a face-to-face evaluation and consider restarting those earlier medicines. More importantly, please do not stop the medicines on your own in future.



Regards,
