thanks, hyperfocus! i appreciate your advice and empathy. i've heard about anafranil, but i don't know too many people with experience on it. in general, the doctors i've seen have tended to stay away from tricyclics. for most all of them, newer is better--always. the doctor i saw the other day didn't refuse to address my obsessiveness; he just chose to address the attention (which i didn't raise as a major concern) first and said we'll deal with the other stuff next time. at least he does seem like he'll be willing to prescribe whatever i ask, especially since there are no brand new ocd drugs for him to push. any particular suggestions? of all my problems, the obsessiveness has been the most intractable, and while the others seem to be getting better, this is definitely getting worse.
thanks again for your response!
