I am suffering from religious ocd for 10 yrs. As my problem is vulgar hesitated to share to even parents. Resulting in a great loss of my career. 6 months back I started using allopathy treatment of fluvoxamine & clomipramine tablets. Unwanted repeated thoughts were almost diminished but couldn't concentrate at all on anything. If I tried to read or think immediately some unwanted thoughts used to intrusive me more harder and deeper. If I look at any god's image some sexual scenes or private parts pics appear as if it were present to them. I was completely drenched in ocd, as bad unwanted vulgar thoughts appear on god I couldn't concentrate at all as a result there was huge lose on my education & job. I would want to know what to do to cure my ocd. Is there complete cure in allopathy or homeopathy or in ayurveda? Which treatment is better & efficient? Plze helps me.

Sexual thoughts towards god/goddesses is common in ocd. It can be treated. Consult for further discussion for your medication options.

Dear lybrate-user, disclaimer: I can advice only about allopathy. Ocd needs long term treatment. Sacrilege ocd needs immediate treatment. You have found improvement with fluoxamine and clomipramine. Please maintain them for at least 2 years. Dose will be altered with doctor's periodic consultations. Along with it, you can take cbt (cognitive behaviour therapy) and erp (exposure and response prevention). This therapy may take 18-20 sessions. It also needs to be maintained with booster sessions for a long term. At this critical age of yours, to settle in education and job, you need both tablets and therapy. There is nothing as complete cure in ocd. But you will have a good quality of life with the treatment. No one will know that you are on treatment. I am not qualified to comment on homeopathy or ayurveda.
