Talk to Psychiatry on Ocd Medication Or Therapy
Asking For Self, Male 24, Lahore
Salam. I have been diagnosed Pure Ocd by psychatrist. He prescribed me faverin 50 mg. Its not working well. I feel like a robot please guide me how to upgrade my dose?. A Therapist told me that medication is not necessary for ocd. Can you guide me which thing is more effective medication or therapy? And Is there a time limit for medication? like some says a year. Need your guidance thankyou. :)

Walaikumasalam. 50mg is little dose. Make it to 100mg after breakfast and continue it. And u have to take medications there is no way that u will ne fine without it. And do deep breathing sit on a chair in dim light inhale through nose feel it when it reach in ur abdomen holf for t seconds then exhale it out as slowly as it was taken inn. Do it 25 times before sleeping take full sleep of minimum 7 hours. Take medicine properly dont miss any dose and inform me after 2 weeks. Good luck

Both have evidence to have worked . Psychotherapy is good if a patient is psychological minded and has willingness to put in recommended work.
Patient has to choose form himself. Both ways are good .
for ocd you need both meds and therapy.both modalities produce a mutually synergistic response. I have a great interest in treating pure o ocd.
