Doctors' responses

You are a 17-year-old experiencing daily worsening of obsessive thoughts consistent with Obsessive compulsive disorder, and it is very positive that psychotherapy has already helped you significantly. However, since symptoms still persist and affect your daily life, adding medication can be beneficial, but this must be done under the supervision of a psychiatrist, especially at your age. The most commonly used and effective medications are Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors such as fluoxetine, sertraline, or fluvoxamine, which help reduce obsessive thoughts and anxiety over time. These medicines require proper dosing, monitoring, and follow-up to avoid side effects and ensure safety. You should not start any medication on your own. In summary, your condition is treatable, therapy is already helping, and with proper psychiatric guidance, combining therapy with medication can further improve your symptoms and quality of life.

اگر وسواس اجباری شما در حال تشدید است، بررسی دقیقتر وضعیت شما ضروری است. تجویز داروها معمولاً باید توسط روانپزشک انجام شود و بهتر است در این موارد از متخصص کمک بگیرید. اما از نظر کلی، بسیاری از بیماران با استفاده از داروهای SSRI یا مهارکننده‌های بازجذب سروتونین مانند فلوکستین، سرترالین یا پاروکستین نتایج خوبی می‌گیرند. دوز مناسب و تغییرات آن باید تحت نظر پزشک صورت گیرد. مهم است که درمان دارویی همراه با روان‌درمانی مؤثر باشد، چرا که ترکیب این دو راهکار معمولاً نتایج بهتری فراهم می‌کند. همچنین مراقبت از سلامتی عمومی، شامل خواب کافی، ورزش منظم و تغذیه مناسب می‌تواند به بهبود شرایط کمک کند. اگر علائم شما به طور ناگهانی شدیدتر شده باشد و یا حالت‌های اضطرابی یا افسردگی شدیدتر به همراه داشته باشد، بهتر است بلافاصله با متخصص مشورت کنید. در چنین مواردی، تشخیص و درمان سریع می‌تواند از مشکلات بزرگتر جلوگیری کند. هیچ‌گاه درمان‌های خودسرانه را شروع یا قطع نکنید، زیرا این می‌تواند بر وضعیت روانی و جسمی تاثیر منفی داشته باشد. از پزشک معالج خود مشورت بگیرید تا بتوانید بهترین و مناسب‌ترین روش درمانی را برای خود انتخاب کنید.
