I believe he's taking around 150mg for depression (I was on 200mg for OCD). He has a strong family history of depression; his mother even committed suicide over it. According to him, his life greatly improved upon switching to Zoloft from older antidepressants. I don't think he's taking any other drugs. My doctor has prescribed Klonopin for me before, but I only remember taking a couple pills.
I'm not quite sure I understand your original post. It sounds as if you are hearing voices in you head while in the process of waking up. This doesn't sound like OCD at all to me, but more of a sleep issue. Obsessions can involve thoughts that you know are ridiculous, but are compelled to think anyway. I've never actually HEARD something speak to me. There have been times when I've been forced out of bed too early by school, and was still "half-dreaming". Perhaps you're experiencing something similar.
I'd encourage you to check out www.sleepnet.com. They have some pretty useful forums not unlike these ones. They seem to be closed until Feb. 23rd though.
