So, is it mainly the OCD or do you have depressive symptoms too?
Anyhoo... I use Cymbalta, which is a combo serotonin-norepinephrin reuptake inhibitor. I have never had any libido problems on it, although I'm not sure what the general consensus is. But Cymbalta is approved for both depressive and anxiety-type symptoms, as well as chronic pain. So its sort of a silver bullet for a lot of the symptoms that come along with this kind of thing, one little pill instead of a handful.
I know i sound like an ad, but I take like 6 other pills a day besides this so I'm really glad it does the work of several things and saves me even more pills.
Not sure what the availability is worldwide - I'm in the US. Its made by Lilly if that helps.
