Olanzapine, that you are taking already, is known to cause weight gain and stimulate appetite. However if it is not doing the same, an assessment may be required. Also, you wrote that you have been taking medications for OCD since an year. How are you now? Are your symptoms under control?
Next Steps
There are some syrups that can help in appetite stimulation. Fluoxetine itself may cause some appetite suppression, so that needs to be investigated as well.

Sir Please put such questions to your treating doctor, you will get answer. If you are not satisfied then you may change the doctor but avoid prescriptions / medicines from various doctors resulting in mix and match of medicines
