I started two pills of Prozac today plus some kind of beta blocker that helps with tremors. Yet today I've felt more anxious than I've been since starting Prozac. Is this an adjustment period symptom or what else? I really need help.

I've tried Prozac in the past. If you develop symptoms of increased anxiety and agitation, I suggest you contact your doctor immediately.

I don't want to make you even more anxious, but I had a bad experience with Prozac. I developed extreme agitation and insomnia for the week or so I was on it. I contacted my doctor, who put me on something else that worked beautifully.

Again, I'm not trying to scare you. Many people have taken Prozac and thought it was great. The side effects vary from person to person. I'm just advising you to be mindful of any increased agitation and insomnia. If this does happen to you, don't be afraid to call your doctor right away.

I hope this reply helps you.

That's very helpful, thank you very much! I was told there would be some tangible shifts while my body acclimatized, so I think I'll ride it out longer, but should it continue I will most definitely take your advice. I greatly appreciate your insight.
