Specializes in Psychiatry

There's still time!: No matter how old you are, you can still get help for ocd. A psychiatrist can evaluate you and your needs, and prescribe any medications that might be helpful. Also, cognitive behavioral therapy can be useful too, depending on the specific obsessions and compulsions you might have. Please don't let being 73 stop you -- as long as you're on this physical plane, you can still be treated.
