Tell me how you coped when ADs made it worse before better

[Imamessybugger]

I upped my dose from 20mg fluoxetine to 40mg on Monday. Because life's got so much harder or I'm struggling because my body got used to 20mg.

Anyway I'm feeling worse, not scarily or dangerously worse and I'm very much aware this is meds messing with my head before they work properly.

How did you get through this phase?

I'm off work under the pretext of something else so hoping I'll be better or they'll have kicked in by the time I get back.

It is tough but, you just have to push on. You know it will Improve and that time is the only way. Give yourself a break if you feel bad and just tell yourself it will improve.

I am going through this but, I am having times where I feel great and other times where I just feel crap, this helps me see the light at the end of the tunnel.

How much time off work do you have?

Thanks @Battlecat98. I'm due back Monday.
