Hello! I'm trying to figure out how to address my nervous tics lately. They've been persistent this past year and are always changing. From eye blinking, to head shaking, to sticking my elbow in my sides, squeaking, to a eye closed swallow things. I can't remember them all. I don't always have them. If I've properly slept and aren't stressed/anxious they don't exist at all. As I'm typing this I keep needing to pick up my thumbs and bend them till I hear something crack. I don't know where to put this though! Thanks!

I hope you don't mind me asking, but what happened that your pdoc took you off all those meds? Were you weaned off of any of them? -

Trileptal (Oxcarbazepine)? Tegretol may not have worked for you but some people respond drastically with similar chemical structures with slight changes. i.e. Apparently right brained vs. left brained determines if you respond better to Nexium (esomeprazole) vs. Prilosec (omeprazole). The structure is simply "flipped" but makes all the difference.

I didn't find it sedating. The opposite actually. That and Luvox gave me awful insomnia. It's sedating for most though. I just get paradoxical effects from meds. However it WAS effective for the OCD. Went from severe to moderate. I was able to let things go, really early on too. Good luck! It's been life changing for some other people I know.

My friend is currently in a psych ward (which I had a role in contacting PESS) and is frustrated with me. She said she doesn't mention my contamination OCD even when my hands are constantly bleeding from handwashing. She respects my decision. She told me someone is in there and has contamination OCD. They're working on his disorder but she isn't sure if he's there for something else. Can I get locked up for my contamination issues? Would PESS actually intervene? Does it meet the criteria for harming myself? I don't harm myself on purpose like someone who cuts or anything. I want to b
