I hate how depression stops you knowing yourself!! I'm on Fluoxerine 20mg and although I feel better in the sense that I'm not crying every day now or getting the horrific panic attacks I'm still doing terrible at work!! I've only been in the job 3 months and I don't know if I'm just not up to the job and shoul cut my losses or if its the depression stopping my head working properly!!! Sorry for the rant but when I stumbled across this site I couldn't help myself!
Hi,
I am in a new job after being made redundant and 3 months into a 6 month probation I feel im doing fine at the job but am worried about the 1hr 40 commute as was only used to 5 mins down the road before. Also relationship just broken down.
I have been on fluoxetine b4 years ago and it eventually helped. Am 3 weeks into taking it again.
Been reading alot of forums today as just couldnt get up this morning and there seem to be side effects for everyone.
What are your side effects?
Hi
Hope you're doing ok. The mornings are the worst, I just want to pull my covers over my head and hide.
The side effects are easing up now thankfully but the main side effects I suffered with were terrible shaking, normally at lunch time, headaches and feeling sick in the morning. I was physically sick everyday for a week. But like I say not so bad now, just a few headaches.
I do feel better for taking them, I don't have such a terrible sense of despair anymore. If anything I feel a bit numb about it all now.
Hi again,
Think its just a case of c how they go but in general I think we should stick with them and see how we go.
God I hate this bloody commute but hey Im so tired I tend to snooze most of the way there lol.

Yeah I think your right. I hope everything eases up for you.
