Does the ocd disappear with time?

No: Ocd sc can fluctuate and can change i type severity and even disappear for some time , but would not " term " it as ocd disappears . This would mean that it doesn't occur any more . Not true.

Likely not...: So learn to shrink OCD & manage it! Before seeking out treatment, ensure that U get the most effective treatment(s) available! Consider1st doing some serious research on OCD. Learn all U can about it. Also learn all U can about what treatment(s) is/are effective. This way U can know what best to look for & what questions to ask. I suggest starting w/ International OCD Foundation (ocfoundation.org)

OCD: Most people respond very well to treatment but there are few who might continue to have symptoms. Treatment can be with medications or psychotherapy or a combination of the two . http://patient.info/doctor/obsessive-compulsive-disorder-pro
