> > Your dose of omega-3 fish oil can be increased considerably.You are taking 1000mg of fish oil and if that is a fairly standard capsule it has around 300mg of EPA plus DHA.A dose of 10-30 times this much is occasioanally usefuly in OCD.Do not stop your regular meds-just increase the fish oil gradually and see what happens.See www.omega3.20megsfree.com.

> The 1000mg of fish oil that I'm taking includes about 500mg of EPA and 300+ of DHA. Is that enough? Each super strength NutriPlus EPA 2000 cost about a dollar each. Can I supplement my fish oils with flaxseed oil instead?

> I am not too keen on flax-seed oil but others disagree.If the cost is a problem get omega-3 fish oil from Walmart and if your symptomas are bad take 10-30 of their capsules daily.I have seen it start to work in a few days.
