[Guest guest]

, I forgot to ask in my last message. Just out of curiosity,

did you ever try GABA or 5HTP for anxiety and OCD? If so, what did

you observe?

The doctor would like our dd to start off taking 12.5mg of Zoloft in

the morning and then in 2 weeks, move up to a full pill, 25mg to see

if we see any positive changes with her anxiety/OCD difficulties.

If not, we would move up from there (He said that individuals who

take 10mg-20mg of Paxil, would take about 50mg to 100mg or more of

Zoloft to equal the smaller dosage of Paxil).

Thanks again,

Gretchen

a try. For her it has helped with anxiety issues and to some degree

with OCD.
