Does anyone struggle with paranoia as a potential componet of OCD? Stuff like obsessive worrying about what people are thinking or saying about me, getting easily insulted by what's said to me regardless of the actual words that are said. I recently had my Zoloft reduced and I'm wondering if this is a symptom flare. I've always struggled with obsessive thinking. I've been fighting with a close friend and he says I'm accusing him of things I've imagine in my head. I think my husband is nice to me just so he can get laid, even though I KNOW it's not like that.

I'm just kinda freaked out right now. Getting stressed and worn out mentally.

icinggurl, Please ask your doctor if reducing the dosage of Zoloft could be causing these unwanted feelings. You need to be up front with your doctor in order for him/her to help you.

Thx - I talked to my doc and she said if I need to go back up on the Zoloft that wash fine with her. She thought maybe we reduced meds to much and to quick. She knows I'm hypersensitive to even the slightest change and she will personally call me if she knows I'm in a crises. She's unusual that way 😄

I get VERY paranoid! You are not alone at all. Sounds like the meds need adjusted.
