I am suffering from severe OCD (Pure O) type. I am thinking of trying medicines like 5-HTP or GABA?


Question:
Anybody has an experience to share about these meds in treating OCD?

Answers:
Please see the webpages for more detais on Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Consult your Psychiatrist.

Other Answers:
I, also suffer from OCD. I have a medical background, of sorts. I worked in a dr's office for many years. My doctor is aware of my OCD, but has never given me any meds to treat it. As you know, it can be devastating. I'm a very normal person, as no one would ever know that I have this problem. However, I'm not familiar with the meds you mentioned. Maybe this is something I would be interested in. I'm so tired of everything having to be "perfect"! It's wearing me to a frazzle. I would love to talk to you more about this. I know I'm not answering your question, but maybe between the two of us, we can help each other. Please get back to me. Good luck.
5-HTP and GABA are neurotransmitters, not psychiatric medications.
