Three questions:

  1. In the first couple of weeks, is it normal to feel you don't care about anything?

(This is my first time taking an antidepressant and I haven't been able to get off the sofa and begin functioning again. The only benefit so far
has been that my racing thoughts and worries have quietened right down, am on day 11 of taking 50mg and I know it's early days)

  1. How long to feel an improvement?
  1. What improvements did you experience?

Took me probably 6 weeks to see full effect, it just stopped my raising thoughts and I was just better version of me, felt like I coped with things better

Took about 4 weeks to feel improvement and around 6-8 weeks to feel much better . Just felt calmer and like every little thing didn’t send me into a spiral . Could cope with things .
