Vitamin d
I know this is probably far out but has anyone ever tried vitamin d to feel better? I am deficient at 13, just wondering if anyone has looked into it being a cause?

I got labs done prior to being diagnosed with OCD and I was low in Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D….I just started taking them yesterday so hopefully that helps but I had also read that being low in both could have something to do with it, not sure how true or untrue it is though. I just hope it helps!

@Anonymous Yes I’m super deficient in vitamin d never thought to check vitamin b12 but I’ve seen people say things about that as well they let me know I had low vitamin d like 2 years ago even gave me a prescription for vitamins but due to anxiety I never really took it consistently I just took it today and plan on being consistent hopefully we notice a difference!

@Anonymous Yes, hopefully! I also took Ashwagandha with it last night (I work Night Shift) and I noticed the thoughts were still there but I wasn’t ruminating so I think that definitely helped!

@kathleenshubby4eva Yes I’ve heard the same thing! When I went to the dr for anxiety & depression the first thing my dr did was check my vitamin d so that’s why I’m thinking it could all be connected

I went to get bloodwork done for my anxiety and the doctors told me that I need to start talking Vitamin D pills twice a day. The doctor told me I need it to strengthen my bones because my anxiety has put a huge toll on my body and I never noticed. I have been taking mine for about a month now and I haven’t noticed much yet but maybe you need to take it for a little longer for there to to be any sort of change. I hope all goes well if you DO start talking vitamin D 🙂

Yes, my doctor recommended it to me. Talking with your doctor first would be best.

Ketamine for Treatment Resistant Depression
i have been doing clinical ketamine treatments for over a year and a half now and am curious anyone else’s experience. i have found that my depression and ocd can really feed off one another (obsessions triggering depressive episodes, depressive episodes being the perfect breeding ground for rumination, etc.). because of this, i believe treating my depression in turn supports my ocd treatment. does anyone else notice this relationship between co-occurring mood disorders? or has anyone had experience with ketamine? would love to hear from you guys ❤️

Medication?
Hey, I’m here to ask if anyone is comfortable with sharing, how has medication helped with OCD? How does the medication make you feel / does it make you feel disconnected in any kind of way? Or has it improved your life significantly? Thanks!
