So, I lowered seroquel hoping I'd lose weight because I hate the fat blob I've become. Well I excercise and no difference what so ever. I'm on 62.5mg and my OCD thoughts are affecting me. I mean I still had OCD thoughts on Seroquel but now I feel more emotionally affected by it. I feel like I totally embarassed myself in maths class by asking the teacher to look at my work I kept coming back, I just was so scared of failing and now I feel stupid upset with myself that I acted in this strange way making the teacher uncomfortable and I just wish I didn't ask you know? Just really upset with myself I don't know why I always act weird with people and embarrass myself like this.

So Sorry things are difficult! Please Do not give up! Hugs. Perhaps there's some other meds that may help you with handling ocd without gaining more weight also? i am not sure but i think it may be worth it to talk about it with your pdoc. i Hope you'll be able to afford a therapist also. Do what is possible to be healthy both physically and mentally. M. i Hope things will improve really soon for everyone. Love. Sending many Safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @black-roses, your Family, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!

I would ask the pdoc about other med possibilities.

And I bet your teacher wasn't that annoyed about you asking her to check your answers. Often we judge ourselves more harshly than others do.

Will he said "that I didnt need to keep coming back to mark each individual question". This teacher has a bit of a grumpish demeanour but I definitely felt with the words I was making him uncomfortable

There isn't. I tried every antidepressants that they give for people with OCD none of them work. I'm highly medication restraint. I'm on Pristiq that has helped me a lot with anxiety and depression, but it's not antidepressants given for OCD. The only thing that helps with obsession is antipsychotics and all of them gave me weight gain, the worst one was Risperidone that gave me facial spasms and body spasms that I couldn't control. I heard of supplements being used for OCD so I'll be asking my psychiatrist today about it. Also I will tell him the unusual thoughts I've been having of my teacher.
