Any natural vitamins for OCD and mood?

I take magnesium at night before bed! Definitely helps me fall asleep / get better sleep but can’t really speak about it helping my OCD. Recently started taking Ashwaganda too!

If you're taking any prescription meds for any reason (OCD, other medical conditions), please talk to your pharmacist about any supplements you plan to take to ensure you're aware of any potential interactions. Even natural supplements or vitamins can have unexpected interactions with medicatio , even though they seem totally safe on their own.

Magnesium helped my mood alot. It can mess up your stomach as you get used to it which almost made me stop but its much better now. Not sure if it helped ocd or not but helped my depression

I've been taking NAC. The studies on it have some reasonably good outcomes on helping to reduce OCD symptoms, but they're not definitive. In my opinion, as a researcher myself, I'd like to see larger studies as the results aren't super convincing, but I wanted to try it for myself anyway. At worst, I'm wasting a bit of money. So far, I *think* it is helping. But it's not a miracle by any means.

Negative reviews exist for every type of Rx and it’s important to remember that it doesn’t account for all of the positive cases of Rx working well! I tried all of the natural supplements and vitamins when I refused Rx, but none of them worked. It is scary, but I reached a point where living with my OCD was scarier. People also respond to Rx differently, so don’t fear if it has to be a trial-and-error process to see what works for you!

Why are the reviews scary? Iwas prescribed the samething and it has been very helpful. Im not going to say 100 percent but it does help work through the ocd

I understand why it could be scary to take a new medication. I have been in that bottle myself for quite some time, especially after reading reviews, which is one of my worst compulsions. While I can’t say that everything is going to help some vitamins that I personally take are vitamin D, Folate and B12.  My dad takes Zoloft and it helps him a lot with his rumination

i know it can be scary, but at least for me sertraline has been life changing! it’s helped me so much especially with my obsessions. i also found a multivitamin, vitamin d3, and vitamin c also helped
