Yes!!! I can't believe anyone has even heard of Luvox. I use to think my doctor put it together out in his backyard *laughs*, because no one I ever spoke to had heard of it.

I took it for a year and then hopped off because I felt I was becoming to dependant on it. At first it made me really sick for about 4 days and really zonked out (tired). But after that I started to feel heaps better. It helped me out a lot, but it took me a while to notice it wasn't all so great for my health habits.

I weighed 48kg's for about 4 years.... Then when I went off Luvox I went straight up to 58kg's.
The drug is a little funny. You don't think your hungry so you may find it hard to eat. (But this is just my case).

I was taking 100mg a day. I would take it early in the morning and be fine for the rest of the day. I didn't ever take anything else with it.

Like you stated, it is also prescribed for people with OCD's. I never really had anything that bothered me, except for having to use the same coloured pegs when I hang out the washing. (that stopped when i went onto luvox). hehe

Anyway.... I hope this helps in some way. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to help.

Take care.
