Hello,This repeated hand washing problem suggest that you have OCD. For its treatment, antideprssants like sertraline are used but in higher doses than that for depression.Please mention what doses of drugs you have been takibg? Or consult your treating doctor.I think if you had only depression, antipsychotics were not required.Thanks.
