I also have OCD and ADD. My OCD is more in my head or what used to be called Pure O (Pure obsessional). Now they are finding that the ruminations are compulsions just like checking or washing hands. Since I don't have the OCD that causes me to need everything in order, my ADD rules and I'm totally disorganized. However, what causes me difficulties is finding medications. I take Provigil for my ADD, but this makes my OCD worse. However, if I don't take Provigil I am totally lethargic, nonfocused and can get nothing done. I find that if I take an antidepressant for my OCD, it makes me totally exhausted/lethargic. Ativan is about the only thing that helps and is tolerable. And yes, stimulants can cause an increased libido. I'm so glad you posted, I was thinking that I was the only one dealing with this. It's maddening at times. Keep posting!
