My ADD is off the chart. I'm taking an SSRI for some mild depression associated with...everything I guess...and I hear that an increased dose will often help with OCD; any one experienced this?

I have OCD traits...but not quite OCD. It's a common overlap, so it's hard to tell which is really ADHD and which is really OCD. I don't know much about the proper treatment for OCD.
I have a friend who has OCD and ADHD. He also has Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
