I am posting on behalf of my boyfriend who met with a psychiatrist today who diagnosed him with OCD and prescribed him fluoxetine. Here are his symptoms:

-hearing a voice inside his head that does not sound like it's coming from the outside. he has heard the voice since 4 or 5 years old. the voice "gives" him thoughts and violent images.
-frequent headaches, especially when the voice is talking a lot
-convulsion "episodes" (I thought he was having a seizure) where he cannot speak but remains conscious
-memory loss. he will write and say things that he does not remember doing
- a possible incident where the "voice" took control of his body but he is not 100% sure

He does not report any anxiety and does not have any compulsive behaviors. His only symptom that seems to fit is the recurring thoughts, which seem to not be his thoughts at all. We are definitely going to be getting a second opinion but does any of these symptoms match what any of you have experience? I personally think this is a misdiagnosis but I am curious about your experiences.
