Are my hands very dry bc i keep washing them due to ocd? i am also on zyprexa which i hear can dry skin too?

Are you in Therapy?: Therapy is essential of OCD. Also you medication may need to be reviewed. Zyprexa alone for OCD may not be enough. SSRI are usually prescribed often with zyprexa. A good hand cream won't hurt.
