I didn't think I could get worse
Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi, I've been suffereing from anxiety and depression roughly since Jan (I had about 1-2 years of severe anxiety as a child but the past 7-8 years I had only mild anxiety). I was put on fluoxitine 20mg as I've been on it in the past. I'm only on my 4th day and I can't take anymore. My head feels constantly light, tingly, itchy, sometimes burning just unpleasant. My thoughts are all over the place, constant nasty or horrid thoughts. I keep thinking stupid things like everything isn't real and I'm hallucinating. For example my mum was in hospital but she was fine and recovered but I keep thinking maybe she didn't and I've gone mad and am hallucinating or something. Thing is, these thoughts upset me but i dont fight them nor do they cause a proper worried/panicked reaction so I'm scared that I'm accepting it as truth. Everything looks odd or weird, if I try distracting myself I just get more weird or stupid thoughts. I can't do this much longer, whats the point if this is the rest of my life? I'm sick of having stupid confusing thoughts.

I've gotten a lot more compassionate to people. Keep it up, were all going to the same place at the end of this reality. Be thankful that there are people who share your vision
Take care

The best thing go do is during times of complete disorientation and perception altering illusions, just close your eyes and speak in your mind and say OK so this is going on again but here I am amidst it all. It feels like the worse thing imahimeable but it will pass like everything else I have experienced. There qre always good and bad days and be thankful we have that option
We always will have those options. Endure my friend

Don't think about rest of life. Take 1 day at a time. Things are gonna get better.
If you still feel unwell, share it with your doctor.
