dave,
sometimes ocd is due to some serious nutritional deficiency that whacks our brains out of balance..I've spent thousands of man hours researching the web...i got OCD since the age of 14. The ocd has been on and off but I only found more lasting relief 2 years ago.
i'm taking the following and it HELPS greatly
80 mg generic prozac (evening)
1.5 mg clonazepam (augmenting agent) - at night
1000 mg calcium (not calcium gluconate)
400 mg magnesium
15 mg zinc
Vitamin B6 (100 mg) - do not exceed 200mg in a day
Vitamin B complex (go along with B6)
Vitamin C (1000 mg)
3 TWINLABS fish oils capsules (reason why i choose twinlabs is it has the highest concentration of EPA and DHA in a single capsule, but it's quite expensive though)..
Do not take calcium with fish oils as they interfere with absorption. EPA repairs the badly damaged myelin sheth of OCD patients.
AVOID MOST artificial colors, flavors, high sodium, MSG. I stop taking bread and cereal coz i'm concerned about the gluten and wheat concentration. CORN makes my ocd worse i think. Not all people are allergic to wheat, gluten and corn though. There certain things you need to AVOID if you have OCD.
All these work synergistically to virtually take away my OCD thoughts...
This is my true testimony.
You may wish to put this treatment regimen up on your website to help others and urself...
i hope u put it up and pls let me know if you put up.
thanks,
God bless u,
Arthur.
