DAY 9 ! still feeling very low , lots of aches n pains...all i seem to do is think about how depressed i feel..still managing to work but not got much focus! moving up to 10mg cipralex today hopefully it will make a difference! PLEASE make a difference!!!!!!
day 11.... on 10mg now things are a bit brighter now dont feel as much anxiety...still feel a little low but not as bad as i was! have a little more energy too still a long way to go but im not seeing black constantly as i was! there are glimmers of light!
day 12... i had to come on early to write this incase i forget later...for the first time in around about 8 weeks since my anxiety returned i woke up this morning without the feeling of dread!!!!!!!!! i only just realized!!!! i got up and started getting ready for work and it didnt even cross my mind!!!! its difficult to belive a week ago i was on my last legs..i still have the aches n pains and stuff and am tired but i think the drugs are working!!!!!:yesyes:
ohhhhh not such a good day today! no anxiety as such but felt pretty low all day.... almost 2 weeks in tho! i just want another day like yesterday!!!! xx
up down up down up down!!!!! plllllsssssss sum1 tell me it gets better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im sorry to say the pills have the same effect on me also one minute im content and the next ive hit rock bottom. Babe i know for sure that there not working for us or at least need a larger dose.
My doctor explained like this - our brain is making more serotonin but not enough to make a constant supply therefore up and downess.
ALthough if u have altered ur meds in anway since uve fel like this i think u should go back to ur gp and see if there is anything they can suggest.
hope u feel better x:flowers:
It is working otherwise you wouldnt be having good days .It will take another 2 weeks for the dose to BE FULLY EFFECTIVE .maybe a bit longer .The good days will soon start to become more as the dose kicks in .You will get there ,just try to hang on a bit longer .Make the most of the good ones :yesyes:..t/c Sue x
thanks suzy that helped alot! b123 im gonna try and stick it out another week i was only on 5mg for a week and only had the 10mg a week i have an appointment a week on monday with my psych so im gonna try to stick it out untill then.... feeling very shaky today! thanks again suzy!!! xxx
think its about day 15 and im not doing well still really anxious!! :( and tense!
Because you upped your dose your anxiety levels have risen more Lajj .Each dose takes 4-6 weeks to reach full effect .The side effects should gradually lessen in less than that tho .I see you have gone back to work ? well done for that .It does help to distract away from the constant chatterbox by keeping busy and occupied I hope you are getting plenty of sleep ? ..Each day is a step nearer to being well .You will get there just be patient .luv Sue l:hugs:
thanks suzy sue :hugs:im def gonna give it the 4-6 weeks like you said even tho its hard!!! gotta get through it!!!! keep workin and keep trying xxxxxx
you will get there hun I was on 5mg for four weeks didn't help at all went up to 10mg yesterday just hoping this is the right dose and I start to feel better :hugs:
