i have been suffering anxiety for 3 + years,it took me a few visits to the doctors and a bit of my research to find out what was wrong,i had been gradually getting worse
the doc prescribed me with fluoxetine, i tried this for approx 7 days and it made me feel really bad with the side effects, (my symptoms felt worse - the dizzyness,tenseness,panicy,breathless and lost my apetite) someone told me it would make me feel worse for a couple weeks before i felt better, i felt unable to work so stopped taking the fluoxetine
i was taking st,johns wort for a few years and read to stop this for 5 weeks before taking the fluoxetine,the doc just said to stop the st,johns wort then start the fluoxetine (mebae i got bad side effects from the fluoxetine cause of this)
i have now been off all medication for a month,i am on holidays shortly for a few weeks -should i give the fluoxetine another try or should i go back to the doctors to get them to prescribe me something else
thanks for the help
