I have been OCD for my entire life, and I truly believe I was BP since childhood.
SSRI's and SNRI's don't kick in on me anymore. I go on them and nothing happens like it did before.
When I am totally stressed out, my OCD goes out of control. However, since meds. don't kick in on me anymore, I have learned to use skills with my OCD. When I am stressed and my OCD goes into overdrive, I pick an hour a day to be "OCD" and then I leave it after the hour is up. It took a lot of practice but since I have started doing it, my OCD has lessend a whole lot when I am stressed out.
Just a thought.
