Hello all, I've been suffering anxiety and low moods/mood swings for the last 4 weeks really intensely.
Its just not going away. I wake up in a panic and my mood is very low.
Pretty certain I have classic depression with anxiety thrown in too.
Started on citalopram 3 weeks ago, well, I got to day 5 and felt like I couldn't go out, I was literally a complete mess, nausea was overbearing and the anxiety spiked really high so I came off them. I have been on citalopram 6 months ago and was never this bad getting on it, as we know first 2 weeks are tough.
I've been prescribed fluoxetine now and scared to death of trying it. I just don't know what to do , it's so hard taking a pill that makes you that sick.
Is there anyone else out there like this? Intolerant and ultra sensitive to the meds?
What do you do?
I feel so helpless and hopeless. I know I need meds but its like a war zone going through the transition.
Many thanks
