Mind and Body: This imbalance begins in the brain. Ocd is a common cause. Sometimes chronic anxiety will trigger these symptoms. It's important to know that with proper treatment these symptoms can go away. Cbt or cognitive behavioral therapy helps, a physician you trust can prescribe viibryd-a medicine for ocd that has helped many of my patients.
