Obsessive Compulsive Disorder & Homeopathic Treatment
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder treatment …by Dr. Vikas Sharma
I couldn’t touch any doors or countertops in public areas. I knew it didn?t make any sense, but I was terrified of germs that could kill me. I almost couldn?t go out in public I was so afraid. If I had touched any thing, would have to wash myself for hours. Sometimes I washed so much that my skin would become red, raw and bleed.? People with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) are entrapped in recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) or rituals (compulsions), which they feel they cannot control.
Rituals such as hand-washing, counting, checking, or cleaning are often performed in hope of preventing obsessive thoughts or making them go away. Performing these rituals, however, provides only temporary relief, and not performing them markedly increases anxiety. The disturbing thoughts or images are called obsessions, and the rituals that are performed to try to prevent or dispel them are called compulsions
A lot of healthy people can identify with having some of the symptoms of OCD, such as checking the gas-stove several times before leaving the house. But the disorder is diagnosed only when such activities consume at least an hour a day, are very distressing, and interfere with daily life. OCD can start at any time from preschool age to adulthood (usually by age 40). One-third to one-half of adults with OCD report that it started during childhood. Although No specific genes for OCD have yet been identified, research suggests that genes do play a role in the development of the disorder in some cases. Childhood-onset OCD tends to run in families. When a parent has OCD, there is a slightly increased risk that a child will develop OCD, although the risk is still low. When OCD runs in families, it is the general nature of OCD that seems to be inherited, not specific symptoms. Thus a child may have checking rituals, while his mother washes compulsively.
OCD is usually considered to have both psychological and neurobiological components. Having insufficient levels of serotinin (a neurochemical found in brain) is one of the neurobiological factors. Among the psychological factors Freud?s (an Austrian psychoanalyst) theory of suppression of mental traumas in the past or childhood leading to such chronic anxiety states is one of the main ones.
Many of the important homeopathic medicines are often used very successfully in treating such chronic anxiety disorders. Among them are Syphillinum, Carcinocin, and Nux Vomica, Pulsatilla and although not mentioned in classical texts, in my own clinical experience Sepia finds a great place in treating OCD when symptoms aggravate at the menstrual nisus. And homoeopathic treatment is much more than these medicines, at times a thorough psychoanalysis is necessary to understand the origins OCD.
While treating such disorders Modern homoeopaths like psychoanalysts, dig deep into the patient’s psyche. They understand Sigmund Freud?s uncovering of the sublimated and unconscious nature of psychological disorders and Carl Jung?s interpretations of how these sublimated psychological patterns contain symbolic representations of transpersonal unconscious materials. They also understand Wilhelm Reich’s perspective as to how these impressions are locked into actual physical states. And in measure as this is so, they are able to apply them with success for the relief of persons suffering from OCD.

My son is now 27 years old. He was not inclined to studies from childhood, He was taken to a renowned psychiatrist at the age of 12 where his average IQ was found to be ok. But at the age of 13 I had taken him to Vellore where they said he had a marginal below IQ . Of and on we had taken to amny doctors but ultimately he stopped studying. He was able to remember but did not write anything in the answer papers. He has no friend and stays indoors all the time. He continuously buys various images of Gods almost everyday and throws tantrums if not given,. He was admitted to Behavioural home for 2 weeks and a month in a year when it becomes difficult to keep him in the house. They give strong medication and sedative. The doctors said he had Autistic syndrome .We are giving him Flunil 20mg everyday to keep him manageable. He is doing fine but buying the images or repeating one thing 100 times have not stopped. He doesn’t want to go to any institution or walk in the roads. He doesnt understand the value of life.
I want some help to make him normal and lead a normal life .

Sir,
I am in tremendous mental pressure from my matrimonial front. I firmly believe my wife and even I need psychological medical support/medicine. I am 46 & my wife is 43. I am writing the incidents as I see from my side.
4) I tried to remain responsible in personal & professional life
5) Compared to my previous life I am more accomplished in last 6/7 years’ professional life
6) My wife left her legal profession and her city to settle with me knowing all the dark back grounds.
7) She a complete home maker & gave birth to the child. She brought up the Child with utmost care & love gave her correct lessons, prepared my child for Schools and social platforms
8) She has never shared any bad thing about me with her family & none of the family member never interfered in our life.
9) She is an ultimate Miser and not extravagant. She has good savings habit. She came from a family where the lifestyle was very poor. Her father was a government employee transformed to Post office agent, sister is a nurse. She is married to a person who works in a Mahindra Workshop as Automobile Service person
10) My wife somehow relates her past life in laws with me & my family , so even before the journey began she made my 74 years old suffering mother & my sisters as a pseudo enemy
11) In this journey of Miser lifestyle, she is a complete unhappy soul, never believes in enjoying in popular entertainment like, going to Restaurants, Malls, Cinemas etc. She even keeps her new dresses in the wardrobes and brings used clothes from her sister to use them at our house
12) She keeps on washing hands & utensils repeatedly. For every toilet visits she ensures to wash almost half of the body every time. Even for a toddler she always ensured to was her from belly & waist for a single urine pass even at winters.
13) Sometimes she roams in the house in complete naked condition and even in front of us she changes her dresses in a complete naked body
14) She never allows to my daughter to take adequate foods,. On every food she tries to judge the food values and benefits . Thus most of the times my daughter remains hungry. She even never allows my daughter to take breads and biscuits or any sweets. Everywhere she apprehends harmful preservatives
15) She does not allow me to cook in the kitchen as it will be dirty. All the new utensils & cloths are kept in wardrobes and we are forced to use old ones.
16) She is always after my daughter’s study & training. She is always nagging to my daughter. My daughter remains scary and when I am there she gets a relief and opens up.
17) She will blast on me and at the same time if any outsider talk to her then she will start talking like an innocent naïve lady. None of her relatives could ever seen her outburst anytime. She is a complete different person then.
18) My wife from the very beginning too much against my mother & my family. She always try to maintain a distance from my family members although my family stayed in a different city for last 5 years.
19) She finds faults with all the words of my family members, hates them and even hates their foods & lifestyles. In front of them she makes such misbehavior with foul that no one can stay with her.
20) She always injects negative feelings of my family members in my daughter’s mind and daughter is gradually avoiding my family members
21) I brought my Mother here and kept her in a separate house with 24 hours maid. Initially first 15 days we stayed together , then my wife create such a situation that we had to come back to our own home.
22) Now my wife is becoming more and more aggressive. She is not allowing my daughter to visit her Grandmother and take any food there. On every day we have fights and she repeats that she will leave the home with the Child as she knows she will get legal custody.
23) My child gradually going away from me.
24) I once left one night and stayed in a hotel. My wife was not least scared rather blasted on me more badly
25) I want to stay with my child but more I bend the more she is misbehaving. Using my daughter as a tool for blackmailing my emotion.
26) But my mother will have more severe medical emergencies and I have to stay with her. If clashes continue, I have to take a firm stand which my conscience will tell.
27) With this battle on, I am unable to do justice with my profession also.
Seeing these incidents can you prescribe some remedial medicine for my wife.?
