Prozac
Anyone on Prozac? If so, what does? I see conflicting things about the therapeutic dose for OCD. Most things I read say 40-80 mg, but I know everyone responds differently Let me know ! ❤️

It wholly depends on the person, so it’s best to try it out with your psychiatrist and see how you react to it.

I take 40 but am thinking about getting it upped to 60. It depends on the person. :)

@SophieSnow It definitely helped get me to a place where I could do erp therapy properly. The med by itself helps some what but adding therapy made it was more effective. :)

OCD and Zoloft (Sertraline)
Hi everyone, I’m new to the community. I was diagnosed with OCD just a couple of months ago and have been doing some reading and other research to try and understand the disorder. With this, I have been actively seeing a great therapist who has been helpful to build tools to deal with my intrusive thoughts ( contamination OCD is my worst theme). Do help learn to deal with the compulsions, I start on Sertraline or “Zoloft” I believe since November 2024. Currently I’m on 50mg and have been doing this for just over a month. My question for those who are also taking Sertraline and it has been successful, how do you know it has really provided a benefit and how long did it take to get there? I sometimes feel the medication works, and sometimes I feel it doesn’t (maybe that’s my OCD trying to mess with things). Thanks!

Medication
Can people please share their experiences on very low dose medications for their OCD? Maybe ones that have worked well with little side effects? Anything is helpful & thank you

Antidepressants
I have tried a few different kinds of antidepressants over the years, but it's always been hard to find one that works well for OCD and doesn't have horrible side effects. Does anybody have any recommendations of one that worked really well for depression and OCD??
