In fact researches shows that witj proper medications and applications of some selective psychotherapeutic interventions patients are able to manage their day to day life very effectively.
Treatment of OCD includes both psychiatriv help (medications) and psychotherapeutic help (can only provided by a registered clinical psychologist).
Anxiety and depression can co exist with ocd symptoms.
