Thank you magmag , can't wait for the tablets to take effect xx

Hello max . Did you mean Fluoxetine or diazepam are for depression?

23

Hi Pamela, sorry for the late reply I’m not able to log on all the time at the moment.  I’m only on 2mg 3 times a day. However when I first went on fluoxetine a few years back I was on a stronger dose of diazepam and then taking Temazepam at night. Experience has shown me that the anxiety eventually passes so I try my best to push through it. However my first try of Fluoxetine scared me to be honest.  I’m also having bad waves of anxiety at the moment as the drug builds back up in my system, but I keep telling myself it will pass.  I totally understand  your desperation and need for the tablets to work. If I was struggling I’d go back to my doc and see if they could help further for the next couple of weeks. I hope you are feeling a bit better now.

Thanks Pamela yes I’ve had TMS treatment which seems to have helped me, hope you get sorted x

Hi yes, they didn’t work at all, they also made me feel worse 🙈 x

I’m glad you’re feeling a little better this evening Pamela. It’s a rollercoaster, but once things level out life gets better. But please keep talking to your doc as what works for me may not work for you etc etc.  I only recently had the confidence to join a forum and discuss my problems and it’s made me realise I’m not alone and that tonight there will be lots of us with similar feelings, its been good to talk with you and tell you my experiences and hear your story,

Thanks Jaime , what is TMS treatment, if you don't mind me asking.glad you've had some help x

31

My story’s very much like you , am starting to feel better too and it’s so hard and it’s takes take and time is the hardest but we get there ... these chats have also made me feel so much better knowing we are not alone xx 

32

Thank you Pickman for your encouragement, I will keep talking to the Dr. We are definitely not alone in this. Hope you enjoy the forum. All the best.

33

Pamela hope your feeling better was thinking about you tonight JUSY wanted to let you know it does get better xxxxxx I was like you xxx

I’m glad you’re feeling better Donna and it does take time and sometimes it takes a leap of faith initially to think it’s going to be ok - and then it happens and the relief is unreal. It’s so comforting to hear from others in the same situation, although I’d rather we were all feeling great all the time !
