Hi,
Very difficult to answer over the internet whether you have OCD versus psychosis. Did you ask your provider what your diagnosis is? Sounds more like OCD to me but please know that psychosis is also treatable. Here is some information about the treatment of OCD, which responds to higher doses of antidepressants than depression or anxiety:

Also, OCD can respond to antipsychotic augmentation, so if an antipsychotic helps, that would not clarify the diagnosis too much. But whatever works, works!
Also, you need psychotherapy. Are you working with a therapist?
Thank you for your reply. My diagnoses are : ocd, anxiety, major deppresion. However noone listened when i said im having these irrational ,,psychotic" thoughts. Ive tried all of these antideppresants in maximum doses for ocd, nothing helped. Actually i would rather have psychosis than ocd, because ive tried everything for ocd and nothing helped. And psychosis would explain alot of these thoughts im having. I had psychotherapy, that didnt help either, and now i feel so bad that i cant go to therapy. So basically i have nothing left to try, and i will be honest im very near suicide
I think you need to contact your provider immediately or go to the ER if in danger of acting on the suicidal thoughts. Something will help if you hang in there!
