Coming off my OCD meds last year has fucked me up a bit tbh - I now have an "extra" OCD, not as bad as the shower stuff, but more annoying as it's there literally all the goddamn time and has me doing really stupid shit
much worse than before I went on the meds, but the meds did help a lot when I was on them
(clomipromine)
Nowt wrong with having to stay on the meds if they do the job btw. As long as you can control it and you're alright with it, it doesn't matter how you manage it, meds or otherwise
