1 day at a time 😞

[Debos72]

Hi all,
I'm a newbie and this is my first ever post.
I'm currently into my 4th week on fluoxetine, 2 weeks at 20mg, and 1 week at 30 and the last few days on 40mg! Wow what a ride, would love to hear from others that have had or are having success with this med and it's side effects xx

So I'm now into week 8, four weeks of on 40mg. Still really anxious and far from feeling well, am I being impatient expecting results,😞

Hi Debos72 and welcome to the forum!

While I have been fortunate to not require medication, I have heard that some do take time to take effect. If you have any worries, talking to your GP is probably a good idea since they are professionals.

I hope you find answers here and make some friends along the way!
