Any experiences with Lexapro (escitalopram) medication and OCD. Just started it and I’m curious as to if it’ll really help me. I surely pray it does. Lord knows I need relief. What are/were your experiences on it. Thanks!
I was on lexapro while pregnant. Remember it takes awhile for medicine to work. Clomipramine is the medicine I was on for 8+ years and am on again. It helps me get out of rumination traps much easier and makes me less obsessed with answering questions
I started at 10mg, went to 15, and am now at 20. I do find it’s helping more at this dosage.
I’m on 20mg. It takes a while but it’s helped a lot.
Hey, I’m here to ask if anyone is comfortable with sharing, how has medication helped with OCD? How does the medication make you feel / does it make you feel disconnected in any kind of way? Or has it improved your life significantly? Thanks!
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?
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
