Hi Simonn, I can reassure you it’s all perfectly normal, I’m on 10mg as well and I know the first few weeks were hard. Hang in there, you’re doing well.

I was hoping youd respond thank you, tearing up a little hope your right.

As I said I’m just a message away. I’ve been where you are now and I’m not going to lie, it was horrible, but it does get better, I promise.

Hi Simon,

Sorry hun. They say with antidepressants it usually gets worse before it gets better. It’s hard to say if an increase would help. Everyone’s reaction to medication is different. Can you call your Dr and ask for advice?

Hoping it starts working for you, and you get some relief soon from the anxiety.

Hi soapy, if you have someone to talk to, then please do. If you haven’t already, then please seek advise from a doctor.
