I have been on this for quite some time! It builds up over time like most! For myself it seems effective!

@jpell0w for you personally, has it helped the anxiety? or the frequency of intrusive thoughts? anything like that

@Anonymous Yeah it has! The build up is slow in my case but when on it consistently I have a better balance.

I just got it prescribed today, I can update later on how it goes, but I've heard good things about it

Hi all just checking in. Are you augmenting the Luvox with any other medication?

@Joey_867 I am not, it has helped my anxiety immensely so i haven’t felt the need to yet.

Medication (Prozac)
I am having a really hard time with ocd and anxious thoughts and feeling extremely uneasy. I'm home alone today so it's really easy for me to get stuck in my thoughts. I'm on day 4 of prozac. I felt like yesterday I had a period of time of about 30 minutes where I felt really focused and like the anxiety lifted completely. But then an obsession started and it brought me right back down. Hopefully I feel relief again today. I'm going to go get some house work done to take my mind off of things. Does anyone have any first hand experiences with prozac? How long until you felt any relief? Any really bad side effects? Any unforseen pluses? Much appreciated.

Medication or treatment?
I understand that everyone is different but lately I have been debating on medication just because of past experiences but does anyone have any good experiences with medication that has helped them with their OCD as well as therapy or treatment? As of now I’m dealing with it by myself but it feels like it may be getting worse
