Ketamine can help as an antidepressant and it's effects are very short lived. You can consider changing the combination of medications for you feel your OCD symptoms aren't under control. Remember OCD is a long term probably life time condition. Good luck.

Perhaps I have to repeat myself: don't ever self-medicate. These doses that you are taking and changing frequently must be approved or prescribed by the psychiatrist for your own safety and to gain the full benefits of the medicines. Clonil is an excellent prescription but you must adhere to the doctor's prescription. Ocd is a fear-based condition and for some reason, you have not been dealing with a childhood fear which has now developed into these repetitive adaptations to seem to need it for ...more

Hi, I can understand your concern for your brother. He must be going through the break up depression. De does need to be handled by professional psychologist and if needed for medical treatment. Many times counseling itself helps though it takes a little long. Family support is the most important key factor.
