If Effexor didn't make your OCD worse while you were on the Lamictal then the Cymbalta may be worth a try. Like said, I'd start out at a low dose on the Cymbalta if you were going to do it. Though, the Cymbalta is very much an SSRI as well, its side effects are just covered a bit by its NRI properties. What about a low dose of an SSRI? This is just my experience, but a low dose of Lexapro at 5 mgs has made my OCD very bearable, and I know that with the combination of the Lamictal and the Lexapro .....that the Lamictal will make the Lexapro work better at a lower dose, that's been my experience as well.
