Hey all, brand new poster here. I really need all your help and input. I am brand new to anxiety and depression, and to be honest i am scared out of my mind with how i have been feeling. I always feel down, am having uncomfortable and scary thoughts, and feel withdrawn from the world. I cant even relax at home. My mind is constantly on edge. Anyway, i just started taking 20 mg fluoxitene 2 days ago and feel like my anxiety and depression is getting worse. I know its early and i read all the struggles people are having even 6-8 weeks after starting. But i feel so terrible now, having to wait that long sounds impossible. How do you all get through this first period?

I’m early days too (3 weeks). So I dont have a lot of great advice yet - but I want to support you.
This group has been invaluable to me. I had anxiety and vertigo just hit one day - not a clue what it was, thought I was dying. Nope, it’s been rough, but I’m still here. Doc started me on Prozac 20MG and I felt better a few days after that. The side effects started the next week. I feel like they are starting to get better now... I have better days and then feel like I’m back at he beginning again. The crappy days are difficult, but don’t give up. I believe that we are going to come out on the other side of this.
I understand being scared, I still am. I’m too new to help much, but you are in the right place. Nice people here.
Take care - and HANG in there. These folks tell me it is going to get better. I’ve gotten great advice and god support here.
