Anyone on Prozac for ocd and does it help? Or anyone on Lexapro and it helps?

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.

@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

Hello everyone I was recently diagnosed with OCD. I’ve spent the last ten years battle extreme anxiety and obsessive thoughts. I recently started taking Prozac. For once in my life my mind feels calm. However, they just upped my dose and my anxiety is bad and I’m having trouble sleeping this is week 2 on the medication. Anyone else experienced this?
