OCD (Obsessive Compulsive
Disorder)
*********************************
It is a thought disorder where you have one or many types of obsessive thoughts that repititively come into your mind. The person suffering from OCD despite realizing these thoughts as unwanted and undesired is not able to control it completely.
Infact efforts to resist or control these thoughts cause significant distress and anxiety.
Themes of obsessive thoughts are very wide, cleaning, checking, ordering and arranging, sexual, religious etc.
It is caused due to genetic transmission, brain diseases and affliction of OFC - Orbito Frontal Cortex of your brain.
Treatment consists of Medicines and CBT based counselling.
