Introduction
The principal aim of this study were to examine the prevalence rate, clinical characteristic and related factors of obsessive compulsive disorder. Obsessions are thought, images and impulses that occur repeatedly. Persons with obsessive compulsive disorder do not want to have these thoughts because these thoughts disturbing them. Ordinarily, individuals having obsessive compulsive disorder recognized that these thoughts are senseless.
Obsession are typically accompanied by intense and uncomfortable feelings such as doubt, fear etc. (Clark, et al., 2014). Compulsion is the subsequent part of obsessive compulsive disorder. These are repetitive thoughts or behavior that the person uses with the impulsion of neutralizing, counteracting or making their obsession go away. People having obsessive compulsive disorder realized that it is a temporary solution but without a better way to confront they rely on the compulsion as a temporary evade. Compulsions can also include avoiding situation that trigger obsession (Clark, et al., 2014). Serotonin is an important neurotransmitter in the brain. The primary use of serotonin to communicate between the brain's deeper structure i.e. basal ganglia and the front part of the brain i.e. Cortex .In OCD there is Serotonin deficiency in synapse this low levels of serotonin can cause OCD symptoms (OCD-UK). The psychological treatment of OCD is very effective when it takes the form of cognitive- behavioral therapy (CBT) or behavior therapy these treatment are closely linked to learning and cognitive-behavioral theories of the maintenance of OCD (Meyer v., 1966).Certain psychiatric medications can control the obsessions and compulsions of OCD. Antidepressants (SSRI's) approved by the Food and Drug Administration is used to treat OCD include: Clomipramine (Anafranil), Fluoxetine (Prozac), Fluvoxamine, Sertraline (Zoloft) and Paroxetine (Paxil, Pexeva) (MFMER 1998(MFMER -2017.

In this modern world technology is a big part of our society and our foreseeable future. The use of modern technology such as online video games and social media is increased over the last decade (Cheng & Li, 2014;Kuss & Griffiths, Karila & Billieux, 2014;Mazzoni & Lannone, 2014;Ryan, Chester, Reece & Xenos, 2014;Young, 2015). These technology has been associated with many positive attributes such as cognitive skill development, social interaction, entertainment and many more but the excessive use of this technology lead to addiction and this addiction further lead to ADHD, mood swings and obsessive compulsive disorder.

Discussion
A survey result which was conducted in the city of Karachi in which many people participated according to the result almost both gender are affected by this disorder but females are highly affected 20-30 age group is highly obsessive. whereas above 30 age is less affected approximately half population of the Karachi city are unaware of this disorder and people think that it is the normal thing which they do their routine activities the most common symptom of obsessive compulsive disorder is contamination that 55.60% people say that they are very conscious about contamination people were asked about what they do to avoid contamination people were said that they wash their hand excessively because they think that their hand are not wash completely or its hand are not free from germs so they wash their hand again and again Hence it is a kind of anxiety. The women's above 30 age and married said that they wash their household excessively some people said that they avoid picking thing from the ground due to contamination. Repetition is the common symptom of compulsion people were asked about this symptoms most of the Individuals repeatedly check switches, water faucets because they are afraid that something bad is happen if they don't check switches ,locks, etc. these individuals may be OCD patient about which they are actually unaware of this disorder, whereas individuals who Count or arranging thing repeatedly but there is a less chance of OCD and we don't easily consider it OCD because It may be their conscious that they may not be Shameful in their social circle about these embarrassed thing but we can't neglect it as OCD so we also should have to do proper OCD test. In this current study shows that smart phone is the major factor of causing obsessive compulsive disorder. People spent too much time to using cell phone such as 21.40% people said that his/her partner or parents complained that they spend more time on using phone while talking to them this obsession is very common in female.49% people said that there partner or parents do not complained that they are spend too much time on cell phone whereas remaining 29.70% people said that there partner or parents say once or twice a day this shows that these people are obsessive of using cell phone. The 84% people say that they take selfies occasionally. These indicated that are not obsessive compulsive disorder but all the time a day taking selfies indicate obsessive compulsive disorder. According to American psychiatric association especially in young girls selfies causes obsessive compulsive disorder .The majority of people said that they are using cell phone when they wake up and check Facebook, twitter and other social sites and these technologies take our new generation towards obsessive compulsive disorder.

Conclusion
We have concluded that OCD is the most prevailing disorder .The young generation is highly obsessive to the latest technologies such as smart phone, selfies, online video games, Facebook, Twitter, etc. The people are unaware of this disorder and they think that these are normal thing. We have to educate young generation that selfies capturing, spending too much time of playing video games, social media is not the normal practice and they should use latest technologies in limited time. We should organize seminar to aware the people about this disorder and its treatment. The lot of research is required for the same before it affects large population of the world and will be on the top of the list of Global Burden of Diseases.
