Anyone take this? For depression and OCD related symptoms and anxiety?
Your experience? Thanks
That will be probably replacing my ssri since they have almost no effect anymore

I was on it about 6 years ago for mood regulation. It wasn’t the right med for me at the time, as i was placed on court-ordered treatment then so they took my oral meds away from me so i wouldn’t overdose.

I have taken it for some years. I find it to be an effective treatment. It helped me a lot with getting over my depression.

i’m prescribed! have been since 2022.
was told it helps with mood stability-took a while for me to see improvements but i have definitely noticed its easier for me to keep it all together on it versus off it.

Happy you found your miracle drug
Bipolar or schizoaffective?
I’m on 250mg lamictal it’s a wonderful med for my depression. No noticeable side effects at all. Been on it for 6 years now.

Been on it for several months and it turned my depression way down. Im not sure it helps my ocd much, but maybe. My suicidal thoughts arent nearly as severe on it

For depression and OCD try incline hill walking on a treadmill 20 mins a day.
And sugar, fat desserts. Icecream for depression.
Talking anecdotally.
Nicotine helps depression too, but if you don’t smoke, vape and if you don’t vape you could try nicotine pouches/lozenges.
Change of scenery and new hobbies for depression.
Seeing friends and family.
Video games to get lost in (or books/TV/films).
Good luck my friend.
