I have ocd. Doctor gave fluvoxamine 100 twice a day, clonotril 0.5 at bed time and risdone ls at bed time for two months. After that he increased fluvoxamine dose to 250 mg and ocd increased so he reduced it back to 200 mg after 4 days. Now when i take the tab at day time i feel little bit dizzy. So i took vertin 8 mg 4 tabs and now i am feeling more dizzy after stopping vertin. I want to know i am feeling dizzy now because of stopping vertin or because of ocd medications?

I went to a cardiologist all the test echo, ecg and tmt all are fine. But still I think somethings wrong and not been able to diagnose myself wheather it's anxiety or not. Please help.

Every single suboptimal day / a day that i am not productive feels like genuine torture. Always. I first get comparitive/ self deprecating thoughts , brain fog, task paralysis, and when i dwell on those thoughts i go into limbic hyperactivity, amygdala on fire, PFC takes the back seat and I legitimately CANNOT rationalize my way out, i am not in control of my thoughts by this point, and then i either have panic attacks, or thoughts of self harm (which may or may not be followed by action), or eventually end up getting excessively "sleepy" probably just an attempt to cope with those harmful thoughts and i end up sleeping for major parts of the day, multiple times. Do i need a psychiatric consultation? For context: I can go back in a day or two to being entirely normal, mood stabilized, self esteem not as low- if i simply stay optimal for one day. In other words, perfectionism, black and white thinking; I am either perfect or worthless.
