I haven't been diagnosed with OCD but score consistantly very high on it. I have been taking zoloft for a few weeks & have noticed a mild decrease in the symptoms according to the data. It's hardly scientific & is only one data point right now but it's a start.
It's hard for me to tell if it's PTSD causing me to show OCD symptoms, since most of the things I'm obsessive about are correlated to traumatic personal events, or if it's possibly OCD making PTSD symptoms worse.
I'm not sure which is the cause & which is the effect
