Meditation is contraindicated in people with ocd, ocd is a psychiatric condition due to altered serotonergic transmission in certain regions of the brain which controls thoughts. It is advisable to take medications as prescribed by a psychiatrist along with thought stopping, thought distraction strategies, if possible exposure and response prevention. Your medications can be still better. Good luck.
