Recommend a SGA: Second generation antipsychotic (SGA) in combination w/the celexa you are already taking. Regardless of whether or not the intrussive thoughts are secondary to an underlying OCD, major depressive d/o, bipolar d/o, neurodevelopmental d/o, psychotic d/o - all of which can present with intrusive thoughts, and in all such cases, a SGA can be effective. CBT is an another equally efficacious option.

Why did effexor (venlafaxine) start helping at 150mg when max celexa and max zoloft didn't? I'm reading noradrenaline doesn't kick in until >150, so it's not that.
