    Yes, in that they are able to stop. Now it depends a lot on how severe, reasons why, etc.

    This is a great page that explains OCD.

    Surprisingly, more people have OCD than you might think, It can start anytime from preschool to age 40.

    It is treatable, and if the person is willing to keep trying a number of therapies and/or medication, chances are good that he/she will hit on a winning combination.

    Good luck!

    Not cured, but treated effectively with the right medications and counseling.
