Hello Doctor, I have been taking Fluoxetine 40 mg (Fluni) for OCD for the last 12 months. Currently I am unable to get Fluni 40 mg, but I have Fludac 60 mg / Flunil 60 mg available.
I am not able to afford a paid consultation please help me I am poor boy🙏, so I am requesting guidance here.
Can I safely switch to 60 mg dose for 1 month, or should I continue 40 mg with another brand? Please guide me regarding dose adjustment and safety.
Also, OCD symptoms include intrusive unwanted sexual ashlil obscene/inappropriate thoughts and mental images involving my mother, which cause significant distress.

Anxiety, depression and insomnia
I'm unable to sleep at night and focus on studies. Thought out a day I feel low energy but sometimes get sudden spikes like jolt of energy on somedays. Most of the time I waste my day and even night overthinking or engaging in random random stuff but honestly if I get intrested I get quite sink in it .
Low esteemed plus language issue making it worse(I'm from north east now in Delhi
Always find myself juggling multiple hobbies or work like just recently i was learning Russian and japanese language at same time along with a fine-arts online course while my midterms.
I live alone also rarely go out (beside shoping or classes) also it's been 8 months or so still haven't made any friends with whom I could roam around.
I love clothes but imagine I havent even been to sarojni or cp
I keep making plans and when as time come near I just say "it's little early" and saying so and so it just get past too late
