Obsessive-compulsive disorder is worrying about bad things, while depression is worrying about no hope in the future. Symptoms are different, but the essence is anxiety. What disease you get depends on what stimulation you get and what your brain knows. Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder are generally worried about what they are worried about, and will not form depression on the basis of constant compulsion. However, if it is not treated properly and can not be cured for a long time, patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder will feel desperate, and life will be very painful and meaningless, which will lead to depression.

But depression is not the core. If he accepts a good method at this time and his obsessive-compulsive disorder is cured, his depression will be relieved automatically.

As a psychological counselor, it is necessary to clarify the formation mechanism, relationship and essential characteristics of various psychological diseases, so that it will be easier to solve and explain clearly, and it will also reduce the pressure on patients and their families.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is uncontrollable, repeatedly invasive and unpopular thoughts and ideas, as well as ritualized and repetitive behaviors that are forced to be executed. It can be manifested as a single existence of forced thinking, or as two kinds of existence of forced thinking and forced behavior.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is not a popular pastime, teasing jokes and slander on the Internet, but a kind of thinking and behavior that is not controlled by subjective will, which interferes with normal life and leads to serious pain, and it is a problem that will lead to loss of work ability and even disability. All kinds of obsessive-compulsive disorder on the internet are created by netizens themselves. OCD needs professional diagnosis!

Obsessive-compulsive disorder will not turn into depression, but obsessive-compulsive disorder will be accompanied by depression or secondary depression. Major depression (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) are the most common phenomena related to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Obsessive-compulsive disorder is usually related to depression, and it is rare to have a direct relationship with depression. Depression is often caused by years of torture and misunderstanding of obsessive-compulsive disorder and incurable. According to the relevant data, there are generally 1/3 or 2/3 obsessive-compulsive disorder (the data is not very uniform, and it is said that 1/4 to half) will have depression problems.

Antidepressants may be effective for depression related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, but they may not be effective for obsessive-compulsive disorder itself. About 40% obsessive-compulsive disorder does not respond to SSRI, even if it is effective, it is not complete.

Therefore, be careful of those who casually claim to be able to cure obsessive-compulsive disorder, which science never dares to say. However, obsessive-compulsive disorder is not completely impossible to cope with, and drug therapy (part of it) and psychotherapy can play a role.

I don't think so. Obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression may be two extremes. For example, you expect people with depression to have nothing to do and stare at the door lock ten times or twenty times all day? They have leisure time and are depressed, meowing.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder: This sock needs to be washed ten times.

Depression: Why to wash, sun, and then wear.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder: Why can you wear it in the sun?

Depression: Why should I wash 10 times before I can wear it?

Obsessive-compulsive disorder: washing ten times is really a bit much, just washing eight times.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder took socks to the pool to wash for 20 times, and then went to the sun with new satisfaction.

It rained at night.

Depression: Great. No need to wash socks.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder: socks are white.

Both obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression belong to neurosis, just like the gastrointestinal relationship in hospital internal medicine, which is not completely independent. As teacher Huo Tiqing said, obsessive-compulsive disorder will tend to be depressed if it is not cured for a long time. Another kind is very common in clinic, that is, visitors suffer from depression and have obsessive-compulsive symptoms (obsessive-compulsive thinking) Visitors to this depression are much more difficult to cure than simple depression, because visitors to obsessive-compulsive disorder have a common thinking, and I don't believe what you said.

So I asked my friend's opinion that obsessive-compulsive disorder will be accompanied by depressive symptoms, and depression may also be accompanied by obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Who is the main ingredient?

Obsessive-compulsive disorder is divided into compulsive thinking and compulsive behavior. Forced counting, forced sorting, forced washing dishes and other forced acts.

If there are these compulsive behaviors, the patient may feel very painful because he knows it is unnecessary, but he has to control himself to do it. At this time, if the patient is not properly guided or relieved, he may become depressed and depressed, and in severe cases, he may have suicidal thoughts. So it may be forwarded as depression or depressive tendency.

If you want to know if you have depression. You can go to a psychological institution to do the test, because there are some professional test software there that will give you the answer.

If you or friends around you have certain obsessive-compulsive disorder, it is recommended to go to a psychological institution for psychological consultation. The common method is punishment, please use this method with caution! ! !
