Thank you for your information and great explanations. I have had the Pure-O in different degrees for 20 years but was only recently dx correctly. My biggest fear was that I was going to go crazy and hurt a loved one. It was the worst feeling imaginable. The thing is it is so opposite of me it really had me scared. I lived with this and told no one for years and it actually abated when my anxiety would(that should have been a clue).
I was on remeron for 3 years and it acutally made some things worse and some better(sleep). I have been off and AD for 4 months and am having problems again, but I did some ERP on my own and things are ok now, but my sleep is still really bad and anxiety at times. Acutally, I am sort of numb a lot of the time.
ERP is kind of scary. I don't want to make up details of me going crazy and hurting some one. I am doing CBT but part of me knows I should do more ERP but don't really want to go there. I am considering luvox and klonopin which is what my pdoc has prescribe but with my bad experience with remeron I am leary. Life could be better but I am afraid of drugs. I have some decisions. Did paxil help with the ocd? Thank you for your kind response.
