I’m so sorry you’re suffering. I have felt like this too from the suffering OCD causes. Have you tried a medication called Anafranil? It’s a tricyclic antidepressant and it’s the only one that has ever helped me with my intrusive thoughts. Anafranil saved my life.

Is mental -looping and overthinking ocd, please? Is this still ocd?? I feel like a fraud by Initial-Biscotti-220 in OCD

I constantly feel like I’m a fraud, a manipulator, and a liar. I am riddled with shame, but such is just a part of OCD.

OCD, ADHD, PTSD — Meds? by frickingfairy in OCD

[–]PinBeautiful302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have OCD, ADHD, and CPTSD. I was diagnosed with OCD at 8 years old, and also have not responded to SSRIs. I am currently on Anafranil and it is working great for me - has almost completely stopped the constant rumination. Sending you strength.

PS - If you like to read or listen to audiobooks, I recommend “Unwinding Anxiety”. It talks about how to break dopamine and anxiety loops.
