Hi,
I,ve taken both for OCD and depression. I didn't notice too much relief from normal anxiety. I use ativan for that and its works well but, of course, is addictive.

Me again.
My dog was never on Luvox, but I was. :-) I was taking it for OCD and depression at the time. I remember it was a sedating med so perhaps it would be a good choice for you. Although for me, prozac is what helped my OCD the most and behaviour modification. I no longer have the diagnosis of OCD.
Also, the anafranil causes more side effects like dry mouth, weight gain and difficulty to urinate.

I was at 80 mg of Prozac. And can you tell me what the difference is between a ritual and an obsession? I just want to make sure we are on the same page.
