what medications have helped your guys ocd ?

Hi, I’m currently on Prozac and I just started so I haven’t felt any changes in my ocd yet but Prozac is supposed to be very effective and so is Zoloft. So I would recommend those two for OCD and anxiety.

I am on 200 mg of setralin it helps!🫶

I’ve taken fluoxetine (Prozac) for the past 8 years and it worked absolute wonders for me. I just recently switched to sertraline (Zoloft) which I’ve heard can be really effective for people as well. Medications are very tricky and work different for everyone though, so one that works for me or someone else may not work well for you or vice versa. Don’t be afraid to try a few different things until you find what works best for you!

I’m on Fluoxetine. Several times I’ve stopped taking it and regret doing so. Each time I say I’ll never do that again…. Maybe this time I actually won’t. The first few weeks are hard on it I find, I think it makes me worse at first but it’s hard to know for sure if that’s true or it would have been that way anyway and then gradually I improve

Hi! I’d recommend (if you’re comfortable with that) do consult a therapist or doctor! Usually they can guide you, and help figure out what medication is best for you. Also, don’t get discouraged when meds don’t work instantly, you might need a different one, or give it some time to work. Hope this helps!

Did Prozac and Zoloft cause weight gain? Has anyone tried Luvox?

Everyone’s chemistry is different so what works for one person may not for another. The best way to go about it is just to talk to a doctor, try what they recommend, and keep notes about any side effects and how you feel so you can share it with them. If it’s not helping, you try a different one and repeat.

Zoloft was life changing for me 8 years ago, but I have a sense that it is loosing its effectiveness

Duloxetine. It has helped a lot but as others say it really depends on your body/brain chemistry. Prozac didn't work for me.

Effexor

What about Luvox?
