I know reassurance seeking is a compulsion. When is though there a time when justifiable questioning comes into play with OCD? For instance, I have been diagnosed with ADHD and OCD. I am being treated for ADHD now with stimulants. I was given Prozac too but geeezzz! Bupropion, Adderall, Clonazapam and Prozac?? I don’t like the numbing effects of SSRI’s but more than that these drugs interact. My doc believes they may on a cellular level but not what he sees in his practice. I can say they do interact. I know Prozac helped the OCC thought loop but the side effects! So, I think it’s a legit question to ask if my ADHD symptoms are really OCD symptoms and maybe I am being treated with the wrong medication. I am sure this is all going to seem like reassurance seeking but I don’t feel I was give a real clear answer on this because you only get to talk to a psych doc for 15min. When I was taking all them and in this really hardcore thought loop I called poison control at 2AM. That’s not normal I don’t think but my anxiety about taking them was through the roof. I was told major interactions and was told things the pharmacy nor the doc told me. They were not all on the same page. I went 3 decades treated for anxiety and depression to find out I had ADHD and OCD. I don’t want to spend anymore of my life potentially being treated incorrectly because they thought my ADHD was OCD or vice versa.
