If you are still struggling with OCD and anxiety then your doc is probably right to tinker with your medications. I started on lithium alone and went through several different cocktails until finally finding one that got me pretty much under control. It can take some time to find a combination that works right for you, so you may need to be a little patient as your doc works with you. It may really help you to start a mood journal to keep track of your mood and feelings every day. As you are looking at new options for meds this can really help you and your doctor find the best course of treatment.

Best wishes for a successful treatment plan
