Clompramine?

[hk1993x]

Hi all, I went up to 60mg of fluoxetine about 4 weeks ago now and I don't feel any better, ive been on fluoxetine for years now but feel like im not happy etc, either miserable and crying or panicking.

The psychiatrist suggested clomipramine, I have been googling this but wanted to hear others experiences with it? I'm absolutely terrified about having to come off fluoxetine, I can't do any worse, I just can't.

I have psychologist on Tues but I feel talking isn't even benefitting me, I don't feel like I am in the right mind frame to talk, my mind feels numb and foggy and I can't identify what the hell is wrong with me.

What are peoples experiences coming off fluoxetine? Or trying clomipramine?

Any help would be appreciated x

@hk1993x I'm 7 weeks on fluoxetine and no real improvement and my Dr wants to try mirtazapine next but I'm scared. I don't have any experience of clomipramine I'm sorry but you're not aline x

What mg of fluoxetine are you on? It has been the best one that has helped me by far. I have tried mirtazapine and its best to take it before bedtime as it knocks you out. I'm waiting to see what can be added to my fluoxetine to improve my anxiety and depression as I refuse to come off it just now xx

@hk1993x been on 20mg then 40 now 60 but no great change. Hoping it kicks in soon. I didn't know you could add to fluoxetine x

I'm the same, there is a few things you can add to different antidepressants. I'm refusing to come off the fluoxetine until I get something else to stable me out, I can't do worse x

@hk1993x me neither its bad enough as it is x
