Brain Stimulation Therapies- To overcome OCD

Brain Stimulation Therapies

Brain stimulation therapies can play a role in treating certain mental disorders. Brain stimulation therapies involve activating or inhibiting the brain directly with electricity. The electricity can be given directly by electrodes implanted in the brain, or noninvasively through electrodes placed on the scalp. The voltage inducing is also by using magnetic fields applied to the head. While these types of therapies are less used than medication and psychotherapies, they hold promise for treating certain mental disorders that do not respond to other treatments. [NIMH

I am personally against this kind of practice, which involves electric/shock treatments irrespective of the results that they yield.

Some other Self-Help practices followed

The above ways of treating OCD is what is available these days. Be it medication, CBT, ERP, ACT, or Brain stimulation. But is there any other way to use some necessary steps at home to take care of my OCD? The answer is yes, but it takes a lot of discipline and determination to follow something a routine that is against your compulsion.
