Hi there. Me again. I have a mild form of OCD. I noticed that my OCD symptoms have been a LOT worse on Cymbalta. I explained this to the psyche nurse (the one who also told me that Cymbalta does not cause sexual side effects) and she also said that Cymbalta shouldn't cause OCD to be worse. Has anyone else experienced worsening OCD with this med?

I don't have any comment about the OCD but just wanted to tell you what a laugh I got out of your signature. GREAT LINE!

Glad I could make someone laugh! :lol:

Here's another laugh for you. I have mild OCD called trichotillomania (compulsive hair pulling). When I told my new rheumatologist, he seemed very unfamiliar with it and I had to explain. On my follow-up visit, after he explained all my lab results and what his diagnoses were, he started to leave the exam room. He then turned back and said "Oh, one more thing. Don't pull your hair. Pull SOMEONE ELSE'S. LOL! I started to ask him for a script for that in case I end up in jail.

My boyfriend has a ton of back hair. Can you get a script for that?
