Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN)–Although the exact cause of obsessive-compulsive disorder is not fully known, the Omani Ministry of Health has indicated that it occurs as a result of a combination of different factors.
According to the Omani Ministry of Health, through its official account on the Instagram website, physical or psychological violence may be one of the causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Not only that, but also low levels of certain hormones, such as serotonin in the brain, severe changes in the patient’s many life, death of a relative, changes and problems at work or study, or family problems.
OCD symptoms range from hallucinations, delusions, rapid anger, thought disorder, and psychomotor disturbance.

The Lebanese Festival of Independent Films..for Lebanon!

Director Gauthier Raad founded the Lebanese Independent Film Festival in 2016, out of his belief that there should be a platform for people who try to come up with new ideas and find no place for them.
In its sixth edition this year, which ran from September 1 to September 4, Gauthier Raad stresses the importance of highlighting independent films that are closer to reality and its issues. And “it is important to talk through art, regarding stories that may not be shown on the small screen, in an attempt to find solutions, albeit in a veiled way.” This festival is a festival of cinema, culture, thought and struggle, and “these are the values that we have been raised on… and they are trying to snatch them from us, but we will not allow them.”
Hence, despite the economic, political, social and other crisis that has afflicted Lebanon for years, Gauthier Raad insists on holding the festival in Lebanon. “Whenever the situation, whether in Lebanon or the Arab world, is disturbing, we return and see the rush to complete and make cinema (…) Our country is our responsibility, especially in times of distress.” The festival included many Arab and foreign films, and mental health also had a share, whether in the screening of films or in dialogue sessions.
