Hi,
I have started taking Prozac , for depression and OCD. It is nearing the fourth week. I don`t really have any side-effects, however I feel a lot worse, and the OCD is much worse. I lay in bed for like an hour before I can get out. I have taken Zoloft before, which worked, but the weight gain was bad. I really want it to work, as I have lost 11 months of my life to this illness.
So basically, my symptoms have worsened, and I feel very shaky. Now, I know that SSRIs tend to first make you feel worse at onset and then things get better.(I had that with Zoloft)
Anyone have a similar experience, and how long does it take?
I am on 40mg and nearly 4 weeks into treatment. I know SSRIs are, so I don`t need an answer how they work or what they do, I just need experiences, and whether people have also felt like this and then things got better?
Please help!!
