I’m currently on Prozac and it’s been a year now. I’ve been debating to go on Wellbutrin or not because every now and then I will get phases where I become super sad and depressed and don’t want to do anything. I just don’t want anything that will cause me to be sleepy because I also have problems with grogginess during the day. If you think it will help you, then give it a try and see how you like it

Wellbutrin isn’t known to cause drowsiness! It should be taken in the morning though because it can cause insomnia, so maybe it would be good for you too! 😊

Wellbutrin is actually what gave me OCD and worsened my depression. I hope you have a better experience

I have taken Wellbutrin with Zoloft to help with low libido not depressive symptoms, so my experience might not offer much information for you, but I've felt great on Wellbutrin. Even though I don't take it for depression, I feel like it helps me feel better...almost like I'm not as likely to be clouded by complete negativity. Not to say that I never get sad or down or think negatively, but it somehow feels easier to bounce back from than before I was on Wellbutrin.

Oh good!!! I’m glad to hear that it’s working well for ya. I definitely relate to the “clouded by negativity” I’m usually a very happy, bubbly, positive person but the past 2 years I’ve just been PISSED for no reason and snapping at everyone. I hope this helps!

Anybody here on medication for their OCD? I know everyone’s experience is different, and different medications work differently for different people, but I’m just trying to get a pulse on what to expect. I’m seeing a psychiatrist soon and I’m hoping to get some meds going.

Antidepressants
So my OCD has gotten significantly worse in the last month or so. Constant anxiety and I decided to get antidepressants. I will begin taking them this weekend. I think there’s anyone have any good things to say about them? A couple years ago I got a script for them took one pill and the side effects were pretty hard to deal with so my doctor told me to cut one and a half and take that for a week but I decided not to take them. I think I’m ready to give it another chance. Does anyone else have anxiety about starting medication? Or does anyone have experience dealing with this?

Medication
Hi everyone, I hope you’re all doing well. I’m hoping someone can share their experience with taking SRIs for their OCD and/or depression. Going on SRIs is something I’ve considered off and on before, and it’s hard for me to make a decision (thanks OCD). I know this is something I ultimately have to decide for myself, but am hoping to hear your experiences with brands, side effects, trial and error, overall change (good or bad) etc. ❤️
