First of all mods, i know there are threads for specific medication, but this isnt a general question, so please keep this up as i need advise, although nobody ever seems to reply.
Ive been on a well known medication for almost two weeks, and i am absolutly exhausted constantly, and i mean literally shattered.
It is affecting work, after just four hours i felt like i could barely stand/go on.
I know with most medication there are side affects and if you bear with it they go away, but with this particular medication (fluoxotine/prozac) a simple google search will tell you that for a lot of people taking it even long term, it is a permanent side affect always feeling tired.
I had no idea about it - and it really has left me with a dilemna.
What is worse - going through horrible anxiety, or being absolutly shattered all the time.
I work in a fast pace food shop in town, and being tired is not an option, you simply cant do your job if you are tired.
Yet my anxiety in recent weeks has been horrible, thats why i went back onto medication.
I simply do not know what to do, ive tried different medications in the past too such as citolopram setraline etc
