struggles with OCD

if anyone is on the same boat can you please share your experience or what helps you ?

I have severe OCD with my anxiety, I fixate on things sometimes to the point that I can’t think of anything else apart of that specific one thing/thought that bothers me at that time. I have negative thoughts about mean people too, especially when someone really upsets me or annoyed me I just feel like I could explode. Very difficult for me to just calm down and be ok. I had a journey on antidepresants currently I’m on fluoxetine nearly a month, I don’t think they have started working yet as I don’t seem to feel any difference. I was trying all sorts of exercise, meditation ( very difficult as I can not focus at all ! ) and other “ healthy “ stuff people recommend, I can’t even do gym anymore due to my fibromyalgia, so I’m really stuck at the moment, I feel like I’m going crazy at times, please share with me any tips or advice you might have 😢
