> > Ryan, I've tried several meds (imipramine, Ludiomil, Prozac, Luvox, Zoloft, Serzone, and Effexor-XR). Serzone made me feel significantly less anxious. I'm taking Effexor-XR now and it is helping with the OCD and depression, but I miss the anxiety-reducing effects of the Serzone!

Alan, I hate benzos and actually WANT to experience the anxiety, in a way, so the OCD will diminish (if I feel the anxiety and don't revert to my usual maladaptive coping mechanisms, like eating when I'm not hungry or buying and hoarding things I don't need, the OCD should diminish). In the meantime, though, I'm not crazy about the anxiety and I miss the Serzone.--Cindy W
