Hi. I am 23 years old. I have OCD. But I don't get panic attacks. BP is normal. And I don't worry heavily. Sleep is normal. No alcohol, no smoking. Recently I got conjunctivitis. It reduced in a week. But I am observing that every time I eat a sweet, the symptoms of conjunctivitis again. I am afraid of having diabetes. If not ,then why does it happen? I walk almost 2 kms everyday, Perform deep breathing exercises and don't eat too much sweets. My weight reduced by 3 kg because of new environment, but increased by 5 kg when I adjusted to it.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common mental health problem. Symptoms typically include recurring thoughts and repetitive actions in response to the recurring thoughts. A common example is recurring thoughts about germs and dirt, with a need to wash your hands repeatedly to "clean off the germs" However, there are many other examples. The usual treatments are cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant medicine, or both. Treatment often works well to reduce the symptoms and distress of OCD greatly.
