A Review on Anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder in the COVID-19 Process
Abstract
Introduction: Covid-19, which emerged in Wuhan, China in 2019, has spread to many
countries around the world and cases have been declared in clusters. It has been
suggested that this pandemic process may cause psychiatric disorders or increase in
pre-existing symptoms in addition to physical health problems (Banerjee, 2020). It has
been stated that individuals with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) may be more
affected by the Covid-19 epidemic compared to other psychiatric disorders. (Fineberg, et
al., 2020).
Objective: Could Covid-19 have caused obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors to
be considered acceptable as a result of the effects of the process in the prognosis of
individuals with OCD during the pandemic? Could it have triggered or increased the level
of anxiety and depression, sleep problems, along with the symptoms that may
accompany OCD? Can the process create a state of guilt or embarrassment for those
with OCD to harbor the virus as carriers and the thought of spreading the virus to other
individuals? The aim of the study was to seek answers to these questions, to address the
conditions that may lead to changes in OCD prognosis, to provide a review of
perspectives on OCD treatment, and to form a source for other studies for the creation of
scientific literature.
Conclusion: It has been revealed that individuals with OCD have increased during the
Covid -19 pandemic process, but it has been observed that there are fewer studies in the
literature on the condition of individuals with OCD (Banerjee, 2020). It has been
understood, in this case, that more comprehensive studies with a holistic perspective are
needed.
