MY OCD SEEMS TO BECOME BETTER WITH THIS CBT

Posted by freedom2001 on June 28, 2002, at 11:42:12

I practised the behavioral therapy at this website

and also ate lots of bananas (increase serotonin) and fish oil capsules, magnesium and calcium. Along with prozac and trazodone.

God bless.

Medication + CBT is often more effective than either alone.

These are the four steps that Dr Schwartz talks about in "Brain Lock". That book (that is, the 4 steps) have helped me tremendously too. Actually, my psychiatrist had me read the book at the same time he started me on Prozac.

this cbt helps me during my 1st day of self therapy. my obsessions worsen on the 2nd day even with cbt. on the 3rd day, i prayed to God and the almighty One delivered me from hell. I'm now on

morning - 40mg prozac, 1 fish oil
afternoon - 40mg prozac, 12.5mg trazodone, 1 fish oil
evening/night - 50 mg trazodone, 1 fish oil

hope these 3 combo helps.

i also take bananas for 5HTP.
