I dont remember he said we will adjust then my ocd symptoms are 60% better but i still have ocd. he didnt recommend me a psychologist. i am amazed 🙄 I asked him several times on whats app do I need to upgrade my dose or 25mg is okay? or is this medication for life or for some months or years? he dont answer this question as i live in different city its difficult to go to him again and again. please help a bit. my age is 23 I have ocd from 9,10 years

I think you visit a psychiatrist, if you have not visited yet, I think 25 mg is not a therapeutic dose to cover the OCD symptoms, it is good you have responded well and dose should be increased under supervision, yes psychotherapy is recommended in OCD thanks

Sorry for being late. Ocd is a disease requiring a high dose. Duration is minimum one year which depends upon your condition as nature of illnesses is relapsing and remitting.. Different psychologists are available on platform of marham. In short you need to have a regular follow up with a psychiatrist.
