> I have OCD. I've conquered many obsessions, however I can't seem to shake my obsession about suicide. Currently I'm treating my OCD with Anafranil, Invega and Ativan. I've tried a ton of different medications to augment my current treatment: Topemax, Rilutek, Keppra, Gabitril, Clonidine, Namenda, Odansetron, Opiates and Dextroamphetamine. Nothings working! Do I have to spend the rest of my life thinking about suicide half the day? Ugh, I hope not. I would appreciate any kind of input you fellow Babblers might have.

If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. Are you aware that some pschotropic chemicals have the potential to induce a mind-alterd state that could compell the person taking those chemicals to want to kill themselves?
B. Have the person(s) that have prescribed the drugs to you ever warned you that psychotropic drugs could induce that stae of mind in you?
C. Are you aware of what could be the result of combining psychotropic chemicals?
D. Have you contacted the company that manufacures the chemicals that you are taking?
E. If you could go back in time to the day that you took the first psychotropic chemical, would you do it again?
F. Are you aware that stopping the drugs could cause severe reactions?
G. Would you be willing to seek a drug withdrawal plan or are you wanting to find another drug?

K. other questions if the above are answerd.
