This could be because of fluvoxamine as the medicine can numb the emotions initially.
It is just placebo effect ( temporary effect when we start any care) or lessening of anxious symptoms of your main issue. This drug starts its good effects after four weeks for ocd. Usually flavaxamine not give good effects on this dose. This drug do not numb in two days. Needs revision for your diagnosis OCD near by a psychiatrist .
Yes, this can be due to fluvoxamine.
