Yes, definitely helps but it takes weeks to kick in. Sometimes you might even feel worse at first but that passes. I’ve only tried SSRI’s and Xanax. Xanax can help you while you get on an SSRI before it kicks in

I'm on beta blockers, a part of my ocd/anxiety leads to a feeling in my chest and I think I have a fast heartrate. I just take one a day and while it doesn't fix anything I find I think it takes the edge off a little.

Fwiw, I'm undiagnosed in regards to ocd but I'm like, 90% certain. Though I have been told by therapists it's definitely anxiety- and ocd is an anxiety disorder soo (the therapy wasn't very intensive, just a 6 week cbt thing)

I understand that everyone is different but lately I have been debating on medication just because of past experiences but does anyone have any good experiences with medication that has helped them with their OCD as well as therapy or treatment? As of now I’m dealing with it by myself but it feels like it may be getting worse

Has anyone had success treating their OCD without medication and solely ERP or non-medicinal methods. I have pretty severe OCD and just about every sub-type, but I’ve been on various meds (SSRI & SNRIs) for going on 8 years and have never found one that truly relieves me of symptoms. I’m looking to see if it’s worth continuing with the side effects I experience (mostly mild) or if there are alternatives that could work for me. Low key tired of constantly changing meds in an attempt to find something that works when maybe medicine isn’t the route for me…
