Sorry to say, I just ran a quick search on OCD and dopamine, and it appears the consensus is that raising dopamine alone would be detrimental to OCD patients. However, it was also mentioned that it is postulated that those with OCD have low dopamine in relation to serotonin and norepinephrine. So it's possible that a moderate-dose SSRI in combination with Mirapex (which eliminates the sexual side effects of SSRIs) could be beneficial... or perhaps even adding Mirapex on to your precious Nardil? :-)
