luvox + Marijuana?
You've got OCD. That's a real pain. And I personally wish you'd at least give the meds a try before you rule them out on the basis of side effects you yourself have not yet developed. Not everyone experiences those side effects. And that medicine can be very helpful with OCD. It's certainly worth at least giving the meds a trial run before dismissing them without having tried them.
I think your doc gave you good advice about perhaps waiting to smoke. Plenty of people do experience anxiety during and after smoking (the more sativa-heavy the strain is, sometimes the more anxiety it can provoke). Also, you want to try and make sure you see clearly what effects your meds are having, and when you're also smoking weed and taking meds, you're basically taking two different kinds of meds and can't easily differentiate the effects of them individually. Weed's always going to be there for you. A break while you're trying some potentially helpful prescription meds isn't going to kill you. And it might help you acclimate better to the Luvox--and help alleviate any possible anxiety you have as your OCD symptoms diminish. If what I've read about OCD is true, sometimes avoiding the behaviors and not acting on the compulsions is more anxiety-generating than going through with the OCD "rituals."
