> Would Clomipramine be of any use? I know it's supposed to be good for obsessions and phobias, but I've never tried it (yet) so can't really comment.

> Any advice on Clomipramine anyone??Well I'm doing a switchover from Luvox to Anafranil, but its primarily for depression though it could address the OC parts of my complex disorder.
Its fairly weight neutral from what I've been told of the TCAs, mainly it carries the usual problems, blurry vision possibly and sweating from the anticholinergic stand, some other random things, usual nausea possibilities at dose adjustments, but then SSRIs have that too.
At one point it was a "gold standard" at the beginning of SSRIs coming out, whether that is true any more, I can't really say.
