Hi, I take Prozac and have found it of some help. No side effects at all. Before I started taking meds I had the same worries as yourself but my fears have been unfounded. Everyone is different and meds are rarely the full 'solution' but in my experience there are reasons to optimistic. Just give them a chance (ie a few weeks or so) to work. Hope they make a difference!
