sam

good luck hun

It's a battle

Have been doing great, but just cant keep it up anymore

I am so knackered............... i just want to give up now.

U stick with it babe, I am, and now, after I dont know how long, im back in hell. I hope you are all doing OK, and hope u never feel this low again.

I feel so low, pills cant bring dad n mum back, I must be a total freak to think they ever could

Hi Sammy, on my 1st one today aswell. Tried Citalopram for a month, shitty side effects cleared up after 3/4 weeks but it didnt make me feel any better. People i know who have been through same say after side effects fluoxetine is a really good anti-deppressant so heres hoping these work. good luck to you x

Hi Sam - Know how you feel - took my first onelast night. Feel like you and if I don't do anything I will lose the ones closest to me.

Hope it goes well

How does everyone feel after their first Fluoxetine?

I dont actually feel any different. I couldnt get to sleep, thats quite normal but could be due to the fact I was on my PC till 10:30 with all the lights on! I did wake up at 5am, but again, although not an everyday occurence, can happen. I am paranoid about the side affects, and how I will cope with them. I am trying to be very positive, and have been to the gym for the past 2 mornings, but then barely do anything in the afternoon......

I will see how I feel tomorrow, and I know its only been 1 day, but so far so good. Trying to keep a Positive Mental Attitude. These tablets will help and I will get back to my normal self of a few years ago!!

Sammy

got my flu in front of me start tomorrow

i guess the side effects cant be any worse than i feel right now

hope they work

Take it tonight. I read alot of posts on here and so many of them said that some of the side effects can be kept under wraps because you are asleep. I wasnt told when to take mine, so going for just before bed, figure it will stop me feeling drowsy because already asleep. I do lots of driving so cant afford to be drowsy.

Good luck

How's it all going everyone? Side effects??!! I was doing pretty good till yesterday. I got up and went to the gym, I got back at 11:30, got on the sofa and didnt move until I went to bed at 6pm. BF took me out in the evening which was ok. Have nausea, and terrible anxiety but no loss of appetite actually more hungry and eating more despite feeling sick quite alot. Wondering if I these pills are actually doing me anygood. Feel like stopping them. Feel worse than I did before I started them. Confused again.

Hi Sammy, do not stop taking them, i have been on them for just over 3 weeks now and i think i can feel them helping me, the first week was the worst and i still feel really bad some days but i find the best way i forget about this is going to the gym, i feel sick alot of the time and shut myself and feelings away but i know i can get through this and soo can u...
