Homeopathy for OCD: Can Homeopathy Help With OCD?

This condition can complicate your life, affecting your daily tasks, social interactions and relationships. To manage this condition, we need to find an appropriate solution. But, before we get to the solution; let's have a look at the many forms of OCD symptoms that people experience:

• Obsession with contamination, here the person feels the urge to keep washing and cleaning things around them; as they are scared of germs.

• The individual cannot tolerate disorganized rooms and spaces and will therefore continuously set things in order; to maintain their correct position.

• People suffering from this condition, may also fear hurting themselves and people around them.

• OCD patients can also have compulsions such as checking, counting, praying and repeating. They may also show avoidance such as, staying away from sharp objects.

• People with OCD tend to have repetitive behaviors in order to prevent something bad from happening. This behavior is a psychological act to reduce anxiety levels. The patients form rules or rituals to follow that help them control their anxiety caused by obsessive thoughts.

The specific cause of this disorder is unknown. However, according to a report published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, this illness includes a hereditary component. If you have a parent or a sibling with OCD issues, you are likely to have the condition as well.

OCD is treated by giving the patient psychotherapy sessions along with medications. These prescribed medications include antidepressants and some Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI). These medications help reduce the symptoms of OCD. However, these medications can cause side effects that include sleep disturbance, fatigue, mental des-functionality and weight gain.

Psychotherapy sessions that include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) help patients understand the negative and unhelpful thoughts that can trigger the symptoms of OCD. Furthermore, with the help of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, the OCD patient is given alternate ways to deal with their obsessive and compulsive behaviors.

Homeopathic treatment for OCD

According to a Researchgate study, homoeopathy plays an essential part in the treatment of psychiatric illnesses; it is a science that treats the patient, rather than the condition. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can have an impact on the psychological and the physical health of the patient. According to a research study by the Iconic Research and Engineering Journals (IREJ), tailored homeopathic medications can effectively treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Hence, to provide the patient with long-term results, depending on the individual's unique personality traits, an individualized treatment plan is devised.
