As you can see from the list there other meds other than SSRIs for OCD. I have been on Anafranil for other problems (ADHD) ... I have been on it for years therefore I can't say the side-effects were unbearable in the long-term.
I don't know nothing about opioid treatment for OCD ... I'm sure they work but I think it's not the first thing that comes to your doctor's mind when you talk him about OCD ;-) According to the link Nardil can be useful for OCD ... I'm on Parnate (MAOI) right now and I have understood that dietary restrictions are not a big deal ...
Good Luck
