Re: Question on anxiety with OCD

[Guest guest]

Hi Christie, I know some take an anxiety med in addition to an SSRI. You'd

think one med would work for both, but " no " not always.

I do know parents here have used Pure Calm and some say it helped, but I can't

recall if they've used it while on an OCD med. I believe that website is good

about answering questions though, I recall asking one once and getting a reply

not too long after...pretty sure it was Native Remedies site.

Do you think the prozac could possibly cause that nervousness? Don't want to

mess with the OCD being better, but was wondering about a slight reduction in

dose if it's a possibility it's the Prozac....

at 40mg. My question for others is this... He still seems to always be

" nervous " . The symptioms of OCD seem better, but the nervousness is still

there. Have any of you ever tried the herb " pure calm " ? Can this be used in

addition to his prozac? Any other suggestions??? Thank you!
