I suffer from OCD for about 6 years now. I went to a doctor who listened to what I was saying, and quoting him "your brain just needs a little extra help". He prescribed Citalaprom 20mg.

This was four weeks ago, and even though I have the tablets, I havent started taking them yet. The instant he confirmed I had OCD it was almost like a weight lifted. I still have OCD, but in a way his confirmation gace me some strength to deal with it. I still have the tablets if I want to start them, but right now for four weeks I`ve coped by myself. Some days are worse than others but knowing exactly what it is, and that if I feel I need more help the meds are there is veru re-assuring.

I also told the wife all about my issue, and that helped. Sharing with someone who you can trust really helped me.
