How should hereditary obsessive compulsive disorder be treated

Method 1: psychotherapy. As a kind of psychological disease, the mechanism of obsessive-compulsive disorder is very complex. Patients with similar symptoms may have different psychological mechanisms. During psychotherapy, the psychiatrist will establish a good relationship by communicating with the patients, so as to help them find and analyze the inner conflicts through their statements, promote the patients to solve problems, increase their ability to adapt to the environment, and reshape their sound personality.

Method 2: drug treatment. Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is related to the imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain, mainly manifested as the disorder of serotonin system. At present, the antidepressants used are all antidepressants, which can regulate the function of neurotransmitters such as serotonin in the brain, so as to improve obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSTIs), including fluvoxamine, paroxetine, sertraline, fluoxetine, citalopram, etc., and tricyclic antidepressant clomipramine, are widely used. Propranolol and benzodiazepines are also used to relieve anxiety and improve insomnia when necessary.

Method 3: physical therapy. Modified electroconvulsive therapy and transcranial magnetic stimulation can be used in patients with refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder. Neurosurgery is regarded as the last choice for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
