Hi

> I wouldn't really be on clonazepam for OCD, freedom. Maybe you need to consider Anafranil. This wipes out OCD cold in a lot of people.I've tried anafranil 200mg for 2 months in the past, no results.
Also, how about augmenting your prozac with zyprexa or risperidone?
risperidone almost "killed" me, in a sense. I took the lowest dosage and suddenly I found myself on the bed, unable to get up at all for the next 1 hour, with wicked shaking of my hands. It was horrible and I have to stop immediately.
As far as I know Clonazepam is a benzo used as a anti-convulsant.
It appears that clonazepam is slightly different from other bezos as it acts on the serotogenic system as well in a different way compared to prozac.
