Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?

Question:

I have the worse kind of OCD and I hoping that someone ..........anyone please could help before its too late. I have a fear of diseases. I also have a fear of opaque dyes and xrays. I have been dealing with this for the last two years since my husband took ill.
Does anyone know of the right course of meds. I am currently using 30mg of Lexapro and 50 mg of trazadone to sleep nightly. I wake up terrified but manage to go to work. Right now I am imagining that I have to have a chest xray and that I have to go to a cardiologist.
I know that I am asking very bizarre and selfish questions, but I was hoping that someone.anyone knew some answers
Thank you

Answers:
You might want to consult with a psychiatrist about medications.

I'm not a trained professional, but what you describe sounds more like phobias than OCD. In that case, a psychotherapist who specializes in phobias might be more helpful than medication.

Either way, it sounds like you're pretty miserable. So it's a good idea to get help quickly. The sooner you see someone, the sooner you'll start feeling better.

check into a psych unit for a while
