Hi there
A couple of questions for those who have made a switch to fluoxetine. I've been on 40mg of paroxetine but it did nothing for my depression and anxiety. I reduced my dose over 3 weeks and today I've started 20mg of fluoxetine.
I wondered how quickly people found fluoxetine to have an effect, firstly in terms of side effects and secondly in terms of helping with symptoms of depression and anxiety?
Took my first tablet around 2 hours ago - can i expect some nausea or tiredness today?
Also has anyone made the switch from paroxetine to fluoxetine? How did you find it? Despite weaning off paroxetine gradually I'm still having significant withdrawal symptoms which doesn't surprise me. I'm wondering if starting the fluoxetine will help with those or just make me feel more physically poorly for a while
