> prozac becomes more of a good OCD medication at around 40-60mg's, 20mg is not really gonna effect much, it will improve mood slightly but it's at the higher doses of prozac is when it starts changing the serotonin levels signifantly to stop obsession thoughts.....but prozac is also known to cause hypomania to new users......i've taken it for 10 year and my body has adapted to it.....

i think so too, usually you need a bigger dose of SSRI for OCD than you need for Depression. I wouldn't give up on prozac until i tried at least 60mg
