Maxine:
I am med sensitive and the ocd makes me so fearful. I know rationally I should try new meds but it is so hard. I have been on two days of neurontin and that is enough.
I had luck with pamelor/lithium/tranzene for 10 years and then ocd went haywire. Didn't know at the time it was ocd but I struggled with remeron (made ocd worse, but helped me sleep) for 3 years.
I am off everything right now due to sensitivities but am struggling. I may have to try the lexapro, very slowly. If it makes me tired enought to sleep I would be thrilled. I just need good sleep and then the ship may right itself.
My fear is also that if something doesn't work then what will I do? I know this is dumb but I think it nevertheless.
