OCD/ADHD

Good morning, I am so happy that I found this forum. You all are so wonderful. We finally had to give in and put our 5 year old son on meds for OCD, his obsessions with holidays/ zombies etc were interfering with everyday life. It has helped quite a bit. Now, we are quite confident with an ADHD diagnosis, but I am quite worried about having a five year old on two meds for one and an SSRI and a stimulant counteracting. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks in advance.
