Most people start to feel better within few weeks of starting medications. It is important to know that complete recovery Would depend on nature and severity of your OCD symptoms and your life circumstances that might have an effect on your stress levels. Depending on your response to medication there might also be need for psychological therapy.
Best wishes.
