That’s still quite early in the process you noticed any side effects already?

I’m currently on day 12 fluvoxamine feeling pretty rough struggling get out of bed most days. My ocd feels like it’s gone a lot worse aswell unsure of what to do !

Try to hang in there can take up to two months for meds to stabilise in your system so your still getting all the first side effects they should ease with time. My OCD is like that if I’m more depressed or low in mood my OCD kicks into gear even more, best thing is to ride it out until side effects ease off its what I have done in the past. Hope this helps!

Doctor said injection was better as the tablets can cause stomach problems in high doses like I’m on

Oh ok never heard of Quetipine. What do you suffer from? Do you find that combination helps?

So glad for you it’s working. My combination is slowly but surely helping but intrusive thoughts are still the main things I struggle with on a daily basis. I did have a period of years where that was not the case but had another breakdown I call it in 2015 which brought them on again. Just so frustrating when things are going well this illness knocks you down again!
