Hello, OCD is a disorder which has a long term course and the symptoms increase or decrease in different phases of life depending upon your recent life stressors, mood etc. Each patient is different hence some patients do not experience symptoms at all after experiencing them once however some do. Thus, the treatment is to be individualized rather than generalized and your questions can only be answered in detail after knowing about the history of your disorder and other details. OCD can be treated by medications and psychotherapy sessions.
Next Steps
Consult a psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and treatment.
Health Tips
