Hi, well done on deciding to take your first tablet! Thing is, a side effect is anxiety .. which you all ready have, so what the worst that can happen?? For me, yes I had anxiety, but for the days it was bad I was given propranolol. I also got depression, which I had never ever had before. But it all happened in a 2 week window which is a very short space of time when you think of the bigger picture. But when it all goes, your life is going to be brilliant.

I'm a week into the second lot of fluoxetine and I don't appear to have any side effects at all. I'm feeling much more positive than I was and my constant thoughts about teeth (what I worry about) are going.
