I'm in the middle of my 5th week on flu and the anxiety is still pretty high. I keep telling myself its the med trying to work. I want this med to work so bad as 3 others did not.

I am currently on week 4 of prozac. Starting to lose hope a little bit as well. My anxiety has gotten better but depression has gotten worse. I think it's still in the initial phase of it all so I have some hope of it getting better as that is what everyone has told me!

Hello!
Im doing ok. Am in week 15 and was doing really well until my husband got laid off last week so I've taken a few steps back. Dr increased my dosage to 30 from 20 and I start that tomorrow, so, we'll see.
I was still anxious at week 5. Hang in there! It goes away!
