I take an antidepresent and a low dose of an antianxiety med. The antidepresent helped with my compulsive thinking. It slowed down my racing thoughts. At that time i believed i was losing my mind. It was a great help. It's been five years and i am still taking the same dosage. The antianxiety med helps me if i start to think i am losing control of my self. That is a huge fear that perpetuates it's self creating panic which has in the past blown into a full on panic attack. Meds have helped as long as it is not too much
