How To Control Ocd And The Mood Swings?

hi I stooped using aropax two monts ago
while tapering of I had used inositol powder and it helped heaps otherwise it would have been impossible to come of it so quickly (tapering lasted only around a month which for this kind of medication is extremely fast).
However, now after two months I am struggling , even though I think that using this inositol powder is helping me to cope.
Now my mood does fluctuate and my ocd is not the same throughout the day
I am not sure if I should go back slowly on say 5 ml of aropax wit inositol or ???

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You already gave up your medication. Once you restart it, it shall alter the neuron structure once again. The better option is changing life style suitable for your condition. You know you have mood swings and OCD (I think you had it checked and confirmed by a clinical psychologist). You also know the occassions at which you do not feel them. If you do not know, keep a daily log and in a fortnight you will find a pattern. Now from that day onwards, follow the schedule which creates lesser and lesser mood swings. It is that easy and is called psychotherapy.

Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
