Re: Biochemistry of OCD and anxiety. What's broken

I was reading at www.pubmed.org (search for some studies) that OCD is the opposite neurochemic dysfunction of AD(H)D. According to some papers, OCD brains have an overactive frontal lobe (Hyperglutamergic state), which seems to get corrected by SSRIs. So there is also Glutamate involved.
