> Risperdal is a strange beast. For some people it works wonders for refractory OCD. For others, however, it actually induces OCD. I know it's not the prettiest drug in the world, but if you want to tackle the OCD bad enough, it might be worth a quick trial.

Ill keep it in mind.

Scott, my symptoms are atypical and refractory at the moment.

Caveats...

1. Reality Testing and cognition remain firmly intact...ie it is not a psychosis.

2. All symptoms are ego-dystonic and painful.


Symptoms

1. an idea comes into my head that it will be 'bad' if i do this or that. then this thought comes and says 'yes' to the bad thought. But i have to 'protect' myself from the 'bad' thought and say 'no' over it before the 'yes' gets in.

Get it?! Wierd huh?

2. I can ruminate on past 'bad' thoughts which have 'come through' and been said 'yes' too. Like if i write a essay a thought will come and try and defile this essay. If the bad thought gets said 'yes' too, i then have very strong negative, stifling, and painful sensations to do with this essay. it hurts and stifles any feeling of growth accomplashment, etc.

I know this seem to make no sense but who said OCD makes sense!

3. More 'normal' OCD- hoarding, checking, etc

4. I have OCPD too.


Tell me what you think Scott. I respect you bro.

Do you think Zyprexa 10mg is worth a shot?

Ace.
