Does anyone do anything similar:
I feel stupid writing this, but I do have OCD along with other diagnosis.
I have this thing with number: 7, 12, 15, 21...
When I buy things, I like to by them supplied in these numbers in the packages.
Also, when i have a small bag or chips or crackers, I have to count each one I eat so I know how much are in the bag. Sometimes, I get frustrated and stop counting. I can not even enjoy a snack with this compulsion. The above is in addition to the checking and thoughts I have. The checking is worse than the thoughts.
I was taking Luvox, but really did not find it that helpful with either the OCD or depression. I went to the pdoc and he told me it was the bipolar and switched me to prozac. I still deal with the number thing, but I think I am better off medicated then I would be with nothing at all. The prozac also helps the depression.
