In reply to Cymbalta for OCD ????? feedback, posted by dg44 on November 28, 2006, at 2:52:29
> Anybody have any success on Cymbalta for OCD??? Any feed will be great. Cant find anything on the web linking Cymbalta and OCD together.
I was switched to Cymbalta when I was taking Luvox after it came out. I'm still on it, but it doesn't really block obsessive thinking very well like Luvox does (which I think is one of the better SSRIs for OCD), which is the only major symptom of OCD left over from earlier days when OCD was the primary problem. Secondary depression resulting from another psychiatric disorder is what I currently take it for and, though Cymbalta takes a long time to really hit that kick in point, it does work for it with occasional breakthrough depression.
