A member asked:

Are there any psychiatrists on here who specialize in prescribing medications to help treat ocd?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes..but..: This site has affiliated docs in more than 50 specialties and sub-specialties, including psychiatrists. They would not prescribe anything through this public platform. If you sign up for the HT Prime service you may find a Prime Psychiatrist licensed in your state that you could set up private paid consultations with.
