medication for ocd/anxiety/adhd
hi! saw this app on my instagram feed after a few months of wondering if an OCD diagnosis would fit me. i grew up with a narcissistic mother and emotionally blocked father, so discussing my mental illness has been really difficult, i feel like im faking/over exaggerating everything. i am a survivor of cancer, i had it as a toddler, but the residual trauma is something im still unpacking at 19. i definitely have dealt w symmetry ocd, relationship ocd, and health ocd, but haven’t been diagnosed by my psychiatrist yet. she diagnosed me with anxiety and ADHD, I’ve been taking 10 mgs of XR Adderall for a little over a year now, and started 10mgs of Lexapro a month ago. I want to know if these medications helped anyone with OCD symptoms, because I’m having a hard time discussing the details that I believe would help her diagnose me. Im hoping some of my OCD symptoms will go away with these medications. Thanks :)
