Hi...yes, benzos work wonderfully for me for my OCD, in fact they are the only thing that works, however they are extremely addictive and should not be taken every day...how I wish they could be. I would think that your doctor would have told you this.

I am currently trying to get off benzos. It is the hardest thing to withdraw from. I believed this drug made my ocd worst, because it can cause both anxiety and depression, if you use it regularly and long term. Short term like a few days is not a problem.
