Does ocd meds have side affects?

[jhonalParticipant]

Hi: I just started ocd meds and am really worried about side effects. Or are side affects just mental, like in your mind only?

Hi there. To be honest, I no longer remember. A lot of the stuff on the medicine leaflet never happens, but what I will say to you is, push through everything, any side effects, they don’t last forever, and when the therapeutic effects kick in, it’s bliss…
