Have you ever known anyone else with Pure-O OCD In real life? Because I have to live with it as well. I found it out recently. During one particularly bad episode, I found an article by Mara Wilson, of all people, about it; despite my fascination with mental illness, it was the first time I heard about Pure-O OCD; while I do have Obsessions and Compulsions, they're not connected to each other and until I read it, I assumed they needed to be. Lest you assume I'm just self-diagnosed, when I mentioned this to my therapist and my suspicions that I may have it, she immediately confirmed my suspicions. She had changed my diagnosis a few months prior to the triple threat of depression, Pure-O OCD, and Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Some of the obsessions (that is, the clinically debilitating ones) tend to be about violence and general paranoia (the West Memphis 3 case shows that a man can be convicted for the most serious crimes on absurdly circumstantial evidence).
As for meds, I'm on Luvox, 75 mg/day. That's mainly for my depression, though, but I think it works with the OCD as well.
