and how effective is it?, thanks.

I am currently taking Citalopram 10mg. I had just got off it two months ago after being on it for years & going up to 20mg, but am on it again now.

Personally, once it kicks in (after the first month or so) I find it helps me control my anxiety & in turn my OCD (or it did last time, only been three weeks).

I'm on Luvox (can't remember the pharmaceutical name, sorry!) It's a great medication, specifically used to treat OCD and also social anxiety. Within a few weeks of using it my anxiety went down a lot which in turn helped me to focus on cutting compulsions, doing ERP, and recognizing OCD in me.

Seroquel mostly for my anxiety it has been wonderful is an understatement .
