My doctor wanted to put me on Lamictal for OCD, but I said "no" because of the potential side effect in which the patient basically loses his or her skin and dies.
I've had just about every side effect from every drug, and was not willing to open that door.
So I'm taking Clomipramine instead, and it seems to be helping a little.
And I've been taking Risperdal for anxiety, which works very well for me, but has made me gain a few pounds--probably would have been more, but I'm on Aderall too. So the Risperdal is winning as an appetite stimulant over the Adderall as an apetite surpressant--which it was.
