Treatment and medication

I have been taking fluoxetine for about 6 weeks now. The first 5 weeks were rough and had many side effects. Couldn't eat slept a lot nauseous crazy thoughts up and down moods Even one night of night swets head aches for a few days and tightness in my neck, I'm sure I'm missing some even lol but anyway it was rough. I am only taking 5mg for GAD the doc wants me to up it to 10mg but I'm doing pretty good on 5mg. Anyway I just woke up one morning and had no anxiety And it has been GREAT ever since. I do have some heart palpitations yet but everything else is

Gone!!! I do now have slight muscle twitching as well but and some small anxiety related thoughts but they go away I'm like 20 sec!!! So please anyone taking Prozac hang inn there u too will wake up one day and feel great!

I am so pleased reading this, it's exactly how I responded to Prozac ok we still have our wobble days but when I look back to when I first started taking it the improvement does come. I always say patients is important

I am in 6 weeks as well first three weeks awful as you say then a good 10 days and back to square one but I seem to be coming out the other side now at last.... Stick with the plan, don't change your dose that seems to be the advice and what I have done....
