Wow. You have taken some really big steps! Congrats! Remember, the med thing is a decision that only YOU can make. I decided to take the meds although I hated the idea of it. My OCD is definitely due to a chemical imbalance, and it is recommended that meds AND therapy are the most effective treatment. Sometimes, in this life we have to take things to help us even though we don't like them. Therapy though is a wonderful alternative and you may have more success there. It looks like Sue48 is full of information on all this - and I think she's right. Depression is just like diabetes or heart disease. What if you had to take insulin? You'd hate it... but there isn't really a choice with that, right?
Anyway, hang in there, and do what's right for YOU. That's what's important. Hugs. Let us know how you are doing.
