Fluoxetine 20mg 12 weeks

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi,

I've been on fluoxetine for 12 weeks this week. The past 4 weeks I have felt pretty much normal but since yesterday have been feeling low/anxious, tired etc. This did happen around the 8 week mark and I stuck it out and since i've felt pretty much normal but feel like going backwards again. Is it normal to have blips like this so far in and should I just stick it out?

Thanks

      Hi,

      Yeah my last "blip" was around 4 weeks ago so at roughly 8 weeks and lasted about a week. Have you felt better at all? Hang in there, it does get better. I'm hoping this is the same and it'll pass x

    im at about 75 days...( 10 weeks or so) and was feeling pretty good until a couple days ago in the am..... the jittery feeling and slight anxiousness feeling has come back..... hoping it wont stick around too long.... other than that i feel quite good.... i have my appetite back, and more energy, although the energy could be from the hormone pellets i had placed almost 4 weeks ago.....but overall i am feeling much better than i was 2 months ago.... im glad i stuck it out and all the crappy side effects......i know there will be blips here and there, but hopefully they become less and less as time goes on.
