Does Inositol help with your OCD symptoms?

I've heard some information about people with OCD using the supplement Inositol to reduce their symptoms of OCD without medicine. The study I read declased that Inositol was as good as fluvoxamine. Inositol is available at most nutrition supplement stores, and it's pretty cheap when compared to SSRI medicine. I was going to take Inositol to reduce my OCD, I'm not sure if anyone has had any experience with this supplement. From the clinical research, I'd love to have a non-side effect drug available that helps me feel more normal. Anyone with Inositol experiences?

I also have OCD and i want and hope that inositol can help to reduce this problem ,yes i consider OCD as a problem cause people close to me are getting affected that may lead of course to non-healthy relationship to people living in the same roof. I understand this discussion posted one month already, so have you tried using this Inositol? Is it effective, what about side-effects?
