Ocd and rexulti

I have had ocd since I was 8 years old. It has ruined alot of my life. I'm now going to be 60 in July. I've been on clomipramine over 35 years. I'm also on abilify but my psychiatrist mentioned going on rexulti instead of abilify. I'm scared but I want to try it. I read rexulti can greatly improve ocd intrusive thoughts. I really need something to help more. Has anyone here gone on rexulti for ocd?

I have never been on rexulti. I have been on Abilify. It never really helped me. I had symptoms of OCD for 14 years. My new psychiatrist took me off of everything and started from scratch. He put me on Luvox for the first time. Within a few weeks all of my OCD symptoms were gone. Great blessings to you.
