My OCD! What med? - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Message Board

It's hard for me to admit it.. but I know I have OCD...

I had my self the first healthscare in my life... and now for at least 8 months now.. I Can't stop running situwations dealing with my health through my mind...

Like what if its this, or what if its that, and then I'll have to do this..
Over and over and over and over again.. I have to constantly be doing something or else my mind goes idle and I go crazy

Then I evently erupt into a panic attack.. It's destroying my life right now.. I'm going to the doctor this week to figure out what can be done..again..

My question is through I don't do well on Zoloft.. I hear voices in my head telling me to do bad things. Are all SSRIs going to do this too me? The great thing with my 2 months of Zoloft treatment.. when I came off the meds I felt greattttttt! and had my apatite back and everything.. He put me on TRazodone to help me sleep.. but now 3 months later my OCD is even worse than before...

I know its along story I myself just don't have anyone to talk to this about

so any tips and input would be great guys!

my suggestion through personal use only is to try celexa. ive been on tons of stuff and because i have bad reactions to most things and ironically my ocd probs stem from worrying about my health all the this is the 1 med that has almost changed my life!! zoloft didnt do much for me. i would give this a shot, very little side effects and what i did get went away within 2 weeks. gl

I am on Luvox and I have wondered about other SSRI's. Most days my OCD is cool but today it was bad and I thought maybe there is a better med that I should talk to my shrink about. I know OCD is chronic but I am not satisfied with this if there is something that is better than what I am taking.
