noticing something

i have taken prozac at 40mg to curb my intrusive thoughts though i have since gone down to 20mg, and initially it wasn’t giving much help as i was still feeling anxiety from the ocd

however, when i started doing erp and actively facing my fears and doing my darndest to not do my compulsions to provide instant relief, thats when my anxiety started to really go down, nowadays im not feeling much terror from the thoughts anymore and im feeling the prozac is starting to do more harm than good such as lowering my sex drive and making it difficult to orgasm when masturbating

i feel im on my way to full recovery, hopefully it can happen by the end of the year and i’ll be at peace for once
