Dear sir/ madam I am a 46 years old unmarried guy with ocd (hand washing, preoccupied with cleanliness) I am jobless. I have worked for 3- 4 years at various concerns. Nowadays I find myself feeling tired easily, I get exhausted easily. I feel sleepy after having breakfast, food. I feel depressed also. I have lost my confidence which I hardly had in my past even. I cannot work among a group of people. I have social anxiety, inferiority complex, insecurities with appearance. I have a very very poor memory and I lack concentration. I am 46 and complaining like a college goer. I am ashamed of myself. I am good for nothing fellow. I am a useless fellow. I have worked at various concerns and I find people working and feeling normal like whereas I find myself in a miserable state unable to perform my job, unable to socialise, and then the other issues which I discussed before. I may commit suicide if my situation deteriorates. Is there anyone in this world who can help me without taking any fees. Rgds Monty.

Dear Lybrate user It seems that your problem is kind of severe. OCD leads to depression and anxiety. You seem to have a very low self esteem and self confidence. You also seem to be an introvert. Your life is very stressful. So you need to consult a psychotherapist as soon as possible. If your symptoms keep getting severe and suicidal tendency gets stronger than you will also need to take medicines from a psychiatrist. Psychotherapy combined with clinical hypnotherapy is shown to have good results in OCD and self esteem and self confidence can also be boosted. Stress management is taught. Quality of life also gets better as you learn to cope up with the stress around you. There are also many other benefits of this combination.

Hello, first please note suicide should never be an option, I can understand how the problem can ruin your day to day life. But there is hope. Have you tried any medications? Psychiatry medications are not addictive .And are like another medicines people use for hypertension, diabetes.they all have small side effects. Just like any other medicine. There is no medicine on this world which does not have side effects. Try medicines and cognitive behavioral therapy. I have found remarkable improvement in my patients. PLEASE visit a psychiatrist. Don't do anything drastic. Psychiatrist will help you.

Dear lybrate-user, You have to take treatment for your hand washing obsessions. It needs long term high dose antidepressants by a psychiatrist. Recently mental health care bill was passed in loksabha. It states that mentally ill has a right for free treatment and care. Please go to the government hospital at Nashik and ask for psychiatrist. He/she will treat you free of cost. You have every right to ask for free treatment. Later you can ask for disability assessment since you are unable to earn or be in a job. With many years of OCD and no permanent job, you may qualify for 40% disability. That certification gives many benefits to you just like a blind person getting benefits. You can get job under disabled quota also. It may take 2-3 days of waiting and meeting relevant persons at government district hospital. Please make this efforts since OCD is a chronic disorder needing continuous long term treatment and care.
