Medications for OCD take longer time to show any effect as compared to depression
If one medication doesnt work, there are options of many other medications as well, alone or in combination. There are many medicines available.
Additionally, you can take psychotherapy simultaneously.
Medications and psychotherapy when taken together works better than either alone.
OCD sometimes takes time , you have to keep trying all options as the doctor advice you, hopefully you will get better soon:)
No, OCD doesnt damage body functions , but it can lead to low mood.
