Hi there! That’s a great question! I’ve been on a combo of Lexapro and Wellbutrin for almost 3 years now. I do remember some weight gain while I was adjusting to it. I hate that it’s a side effect, but it’s so worth it for my brain! Sorry I couldn’t be more of a help!

Thanks so much for your input! Yes I hate that is a side effect too. I gained a considerable amount on Zoloft and abilify and I’m totally okay with a few lbs here and there but at some point that adds to my depression. I’m so glad it’s working for you and for a long time as well. It must be nice to get even a bit of relief from the havoc our minds reek on us. Thanks so much for your response I will ask my Dr about it!!! 🙏🏻🤗

Hi everyone, I’m new to the community. I was diagnosed with OCD just a couple of months ago and have been doing some reading and other research to try and understand the disorder. With this, I have been actively seeing a great therapist who has been helpful to build tools to deal with my intrusive thoughts ( contamination OCD is my worst theme). Do help learn to deal with the compulsions, I start on Sertraline or “Zoloft” I believe since November 2024. Currently I’m on 50mg and have been doing this for just over a month. My question for those who are also taking Sertraline and it has been successful, how do you know it has really provided a benefit and how long did it take to get there? I sometimes feel the medication works, and sometimes I feel it doesn’t (maybe that’s my OCD trying to mess with things). Thanks!

Can people please share their experiences on very low dose medications for their OCD? Maybe ones that have worked well with little side effects? Anything is helpful & thank you
