hey Kell
it is so interesting how OCD manifests in such specific ways for different people..........
Hve you ever tried Inositol (a B vitamin) with vitamin B6? Of all the OTC supplements that can help with OCD, it is the gentlest in helping to elevate serotonin, yet still is really effective!
My son used to have to take 5HTP, along with samE or methionine, st John's wort and the Inositol/B6 when his OCD was really severe ...........but now just the Inositol/VitB6 seems to be quite sufficient to keep it under control
