[|Human|] Started having anxiety August 2010, was put on Zoloft.  Terrible experience.  Met an OBGYN who recommended testing my hormones and told  me to get off of the Zoloft after one week.  Unfortunately hormones came out normal but we decided to try natural progesterone the second half of my menstural cycle.  Started at 15mg.  Second month they increased it to 30mg.  The month when I started the increased dose I started having intrustive thoughts about myself and my kids.  My other symptoms were cloudy thinking, tired, feeling claustrophobic, impatient with others.  I used the 30mg dose until January or February 2011 until I started feeling more sensitive vaginally and on my breasts.  It was a very uncomfortable feeling so I decreased my dose back down to 15mg.  Intrusive thoughts have improved and was seeing a behavioral therapist for awhile who treated me for depression.  I stay at home with my kids and have for 3 years. I met with a Naturopath MD in July 2011 because I was afraid of using an antidepressant again after my experience with Zoloft.  She put me on some tinctures to balance out my hormones, not add any and also a tincture for Adrenal fatigue.  I have felt better but the intrusive thoughts have not disappeared.  It varies month to month but typically happens around the same time of the month.  If its truly all hormonal then I guess I have to take one month at a time, but I do not like it.  What else can it be? and what naturally can I do about it? The Naturopath MD wanted me to try 5HTP but was going to wait until after the holidays.
[|AI|]  Dear, A likely diagnosis of Obsessive compulsive disorder appears here. Well, before I commit to any diagnoses I would need to know few more information about your complaints:1) what exactly are the thoughts that appear, does it become difficult to stop despite a strong will to stop it?2) Do you also experience anxiety and sweating?3) Do you find yourself spending excess time in thinking about it, that you often find difficult to finish your daily routine work? Without the information to above question it is difficult to come definite diagnosis. Thanks Chat Doctor.
