OCD is cyclical, with some people it can disappear for a period of time only to reappear as a result of a trigger, usually stress. OCD and depression are co-morbid, that means they usually exist together, feeding off of each other.
Definitely. I have depression as well and both seem to feed in to each other (if I am really depressed, my anxiety levels will rise or if I am having really bad obsession problems, I get really depressed).
I don't know if I am alone on this, but another time I notice it exacerbates really bad is right before I get my period. It flares up pretty bad at that time.
Yes you are right.. Even i feel the same that OCD goes through different stages.. whenever i am stressed i Feel OCD is more dominant.
Yes actually...it happens a lot when I get stressed about something....or if im having other emotional issues....have u been stressing extra??
