I've been prescribed this at 10mg. I can't decide what to do. I've had some really bad days recently but it goes up and down. I was on it about 8 years ago at a higher dose due to (situational) depression. All I can really remember is I was worse mentally at that point when I went on them and I felt very sick for the first week.
Things are hard now but I've got a toddler to look after so I'm much more worried about side effects. A part of me doesn't want to return to life on antidepressants when I've been off them for so long, just because it feels like Im 'back to square one'. They were definitely right for me when I took them 8 years ago, so I'm very pro them generally.
I feel like I'm barely there for my toddler and struggle to feel like a good mum, but I'm not sure if this is really the answer.
Anyone been through similar?
