>... if I had to guess, I'd say it was the Luvox. It seems like the lower I go on this med, the more anxious and irritable I get. I think I might have to get the heck off of it. It's a shame though, because it is quite effective as an anti-OCD agent. I just never get a calm, relaxed feeling.Bob,
Perhaps adding some lithium (ER) to the luvox would be a good idea. It's a shame to discard a med that is giving you some relief from symptoms. Lithium is well documented as being effective in controlling rage and anger problems. And definitely has a calming effect even at the lower doses.As you know, I am a big fan of lithium augmentation :)
Keep up posted
