I have been suffering from ocd, depression and insomnia since when I was 8 or 10 years old. I am taking treatment for it since 8 years after consulting with psychiatrist. Since last 1 year I am taking fluoxetine and zolpidem 10. I tried many medication but not helped for ocd and after taking fluoxetine 40 mg obsessive thought and compulsive behaviour which was so debialating is almost recover, you can say 99%. But insomnia is not going to heal. Whenever I took zolpidem that night only I could sleep. And I felt high when I use to take zolpidem and use to take 2 to 3 tablet instead of 1. So, I was worried that I got addicted to it and switched to new e-consultation doctor from docsapp. She was psychiatrist and ahe had mbbs and md degree. She prescribed me fluoxetine 40 and clonazepam 0.25 mg at morning and lamotrigine od 50, clonazepam 1 mg and mirtazapine 15 mg at night. Now my sleeping problem is resolved. Is this right treatment? Can I trust doctor from internet of docaspp? She added lamotrigine od 50 mg because I told her that only night time after reaching home from duty I feel very depressed so she told me that it is mood fluctuating anf lamotrigine will help. Should I trust her because she is from docsapp and I had not saw her face to face. Please help.
