Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Do you mean will: the OCD symptoms keep coming back? You can earn techniques to help keep them away. Also, some anti-depressants can be helpful w/OCD. Please see a mental health professional. OCD is neurological but stress makes things worse and you have had a lot of that. Peace and good health.
