Hey,Hi,
i have ocd also, since age 12, it was worse in my early teens, but lately i am doing better with the help of cognitive behavioral therapy, and low dose of prozac, plus klonopin as needed!i have found klonopin to be a life-saver, it reduces bad obsessive periods, and can definetly help with gad, possibly depression, and def ocd!!!
i belong to the ocd-support@yahoogroups.com, they have been talking alot about glutamate dysfunction in ocd, a drug called "namenda" shows alot of promise in ocd and anxiety disorders!!
maybe you can ask your doctor about it, i am going to find out fron my p-doc next month!!
good luck, peace...john
