Med red-eval: You added a medication and your symptoms are worse not better, it is really important you talk with your prescribing doctor. Try tracking your symptoms and stressors with standardized checklists (e.g., yale-brown) to share with your doctor. If other stresses have increased, symptom increase may not be the meds. Strongly consider adding cognitive-behavioral therapy to your tx plan, it'll help!

Can be used : During the course of treatment of ocd, depressive symptoms including poor energy and motivation may arise, buproprion is cautiously added to an ssri and in small dosages, we try to strike a balance between both meds, often we increase dosage of ssri, or add augmentation. , in brief, there are several strategies to address the arising depression during ocd treatment , please check with ur dr.
