Break Free from the Cycle of Obsessions and Compulsions
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a common but often misunderstood mental health condition that causes individuals to experience persistent, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) aimed at relieving anxiety.
Obsessions are unwanted thoughts, urges, or images that cause distress. Common examples include:
Fear of contamination or germs
Doubts about having locked doors or turned off appliances
Needing things to be symmetrical or “just right”
Intrusive aggressive or taboo thoughts
Compulsions are actions performed to reduce the anxiety caused by obsessions. These may include:
Excessive handwashing or cleaning
Repeating actions or checking things
Counting, tapping, or mental rituals
Avoiding triggers altogether
Although these behaviors may offer short-term relief, they reinforce the OCD cycle and can severely affect daily life, relationships, work, and self-esteem.
Dr. Jain specializes in evidence-based care for OCD, offering a safe and supportive environment for recovery. Her treatment plan typically includes:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) — a gold standard technique to break the obsession-compulsion loop
Medication management using SSRIs and other appropriate options
Family counseling and psychoeducation to support loved ones in the healing process
With the right combination of therapy and support, most patients experience significant improvement in symptoms and regain control over their lives.
If you or a loved one is silently struggling with obsessive thoughts or compulsive behaviors, know that help is available. Dr. Pradnya Kasar Jain is here to guide you toward lasting relief and recovery.
