Hi-
At the time I was prescribed zoloft four and a half months ago, I had not been diagnosed with OCD.... the zoloft seemed to help with anxiety but the effects seemed to level out and go away around week 8. I upped my dose after a panick attack from 50mg to 100mg. Fastforward to now and I have been diagnosed with contamination OCD (tons of hand washing). Zoloft is not helping with my fear and handwashing. I know zoloft is suppsed to help with anxiety but am reading that Luvox is the best for OCD treatment...thinking about giving it a try....thoughts? side note: I dont want to be on meds for long, I want kids within five years, and hoping that therapy will help.
Luvox worth the shot in the short term to help?
