Agoraphobia and OCD response to fish oil.

Agoraphobia is rarely discussed on this board so I
thought I would mention a case I saw where a young womam with Agoraphobia and OCD became much better after a few days on omega-3 fish oil.She was taking clomipramine to little effect and continues on it.At 25 years of age she has been able to go to work for the first time in her life.Incidentally the uncleanliness which she felt after being sexually abused as a teenager does not bother her much any more and her panic attacks have stopped.

That's an amazing and encouraging report. Do you think her improvement was solely due to the fish oil, or did she also have psychotherapy or any additional medication?
