Hey Guys.
My GAD has literally brought me to my knees. I have resisted treatment for the past 3 years and just got by. I am all for Natural treatments and live very health conscious! I have started suffering Migraine auras for the past year and have spent this time a pack of nerves literally avoiding life incase it triggers one. My family have had enough and ive had enough of being snappy and mean to my kids! I have gone through some stuff recently and it has also brought out OCD in me.
I have taken many different anti depressants on and off from the age of 22 to 32. I stopped using this as treatment when i tried Zoloft and Aropax again and they did absolute horrors to my body! It's just like i can't go back on anything i've already been on.
Yesterday my dr gave me a script for Prozac (on my request). She wanted me to take Pristiq but i have done way too much googling and at this stage am only willing to try Prozac as it is the only SSRI i haven't taken before.
I am one of those people who hates drugs and will only use the poison if the only other option is to leave this earth.....Please please anyone with experience on this drug, could you help me? I will fill the script tonight but plan on starring at it for sometime making myself ill before i have some encouragement to take it! If i get past this point and then don't react badly to it, i really need some ongoing support to keep it up through all those burning 'call an ambulance' panic attacks i expect to get. And the zapping throughout my body. Obviously these are just a few. I pray to God that they don't make the Migraine Auras worse!!!!! I intend on quartering a 20mg tablet and starting at 5mg......Has anyone else done this?
I really appreciate any support someone can give me.
Thanks
