I’ve been on Prozac since January 2021, and it’s provided the most relief, in addition to CBT for my OCD. I began on 20mg, increased to 40mg by the third month, and just now recently began the process to up it to 60mg.
Ive been on Lexapro for about 2 years and it’s been good! The best dose for OCD is 20mg.
@Anonymous What does it help you with
I've been on 60mg Prozac since July and it has helped immensely!
@ladysheo What does it help you with
@Bryce Ive noticed less intrusive thoughts, still quite a few but im able to recognize it instead of immediately spiraling and honestly my ability to maintain my mood is much better. Some days still suck don't get me wrong, but it helps me keep perspective
Hey all! My therapist recently recommended that I ask my psych about Prozac for my OCD. I was wondering what are some common medications you guys have been on? I know it’s always a mixed bag but I just wanted some perspective. Thank you!
It was suggested to me to try prozac to help with my GAD so I can better fight the ocd. Anyone have experience with that medicine? I used to be on Paxil (made me very tired) and Buspar (made me dizzy)
I take 10mg for ocd anyone else on lexapro for ocd ? & if so what mg? Is it helping you?
I have been taking Prozac 40mg daily it seems to be helping my ocd . I read that 60-80 mg has seemed to help people more with ocd Wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Thanks
