A member asked:

My husband has had symptoms of ocd and adhd for years now. he seems to be getting worse by the day... in december ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mental health: evaluation by a trained psychiatrist or psychologist would be a good idea; however, no matter what, I would suggest a thorough general medical physical exam to rule out any possible medical causes for the worsening of symptoms.
