hi dr..,
 i am 35 male.., and diagosed hypocondriasis with obsession... pure o type... no common compelsions. and my psychirtist prescribed fluoxetine 40-0-40 perday.. and i got 60 percentage remission.. the treatment started since the last three months,,, earler he had tried venlafaxine 50mg.., bt stopped by him cz there is no better effect after 6 mnths treatmnt..but nw i feel better ..
i hve some doubts tht.. 1> is this obsession are a sympyom of schizophrenia onset( my obsessions are related to illness like onset of cancer., and hve any change in my sexual preference (nw i am pure hetro sexual),onset of schizophrenia or delusional disorer in this age.., involve any crime accidently.., happend something bad accidently like police case such...
sir i can understand these are the part of obsessions, and i need to knw this intrusive thinking will stop or controll through this medication... i am ready for having medication for long tym..
 or i am fearing this intrusive thoughts may stay with me in whole life and it may rise or jump to more severe over medication or treatment... i am startin pranayama a breathin excersizes also.
in some time i am fearing abot suicide.., really  i am fearing abt suicide,,. bt here  i am afraid that this ocd leads to depression and that vll make me suicide thoughts in my mind,,,  sir iam  dont want to commit suicide and i want to live here for long,,,, 
 bt i am afraiding tht i have any suicide impulses on my mind
 my psychiartist conformed tht i have no depressive symptoms
 if i have a hidden  depressive episode chance., can it control through this fluoxetine treatment?
 long term treatmnt of fluoxetine , can give me more better or not?
