It's made my life so much better. I take it with lamictal (for my bipolar disorder). No longer do I have to lock every single door and window, and then double check, and maybe triple check. I don't have to count the letters in every word in a sentence. I still have some obsessive thoughts, that are VERY irritating, because I Just. Can't. Stop. Them. Normally mentally reciting a song ...

Normally mentally reciting a song helps, but it's still annoying. All in all, it has allowed me to be functional and blend in with the average teenager.

Have been on this drug for about 5 years and it works very well for OCD. But I used to be a very ambitious person and now I am lazy...dirty house...who cares?

I've been taking luvox on and off for a couple of months now due to some minor side effects. After alot of thinking I have been taking it now for a month and do not decide to go off it again. I have tried medecines in the past such as fuoxetine, which caused very irritating side effects and made things worse. Luvox works like a charm for me.

I've been taking luvox on and off for a couple of months now due to some minor side effects. After alot of thinking I have been taking it now for a month and do not decide to go off it again. I have tried medecines in the past such as fuoxetine, which caused very irritating side effects and made things worse. Luvox works like a charm for me. My obsessions are gone and my overall mood stabilty is fine. I don't get anxious in public places any more and I am able to talk to poeple at school and make friends, somthing I haven't been able to do most of my school life. It has also dramatically improved my relationship with my family and we no longer have any fights. I feel very normal and satisfied with my life and finally things are looking brighter.

It suppressed my anxiety and has helped me sleep. I don't restrain myself lik eI used to and I have less fear of things that caused me anxiety. It does make me tired especially in the afternoon. I take my 200 mg. dose at bedtime.
