I was talking to someone who is sounding desperate as they are on medication and have had enough of the struggle.

i've suffered from OCD for years. can't really offer up suggestions on retraining yourself. for me, it's been mind over matter.

I was on medication for a couple of years. It didn't help. It only masked my issues. I got tired of feeling like a zombie and sleeping all the time, so i quit taking it.

I still suffer from anxiety, but I have found exercising and keeping active have helped me overcome a lot of my own vices.

....by the by, mary jane has been a lot more effective than any rx i've ever taken....it's grown from the earth, and i would much rather take something natural than any form of medication offered...
