I'm suffering from OCD, but not depression (at least not diagnosed) and I'm taking anti-depressants. I feel like they robbed my feeling of sadness and loathing for my current situation. What I mean by this, is that I have enough energy to go about my day, but I lack any real drive to change something about my shitty status quo. Has anybody else experienced/know about something like this? Is it related to the meds? What can be done about it?

Yeah, that's how I feel a bout my antidepressants too. I try to take a daily does that's low enough that I'm not completely paralyzed by apathy, but not so low that I'm paralyzed by angst.

That might be good idea. Issue is, that you need a pretty high dose to treat OCD, so I don't know.

Use common sense and stop taking medicine intended for the wrong purpose to lighten your or the taxpayer’s wallet.

OCD gets treated with anti-depressants, Sir.
