Fluoxetine- anxiety

[Timetochange45]

I’ve been prescribed fluoxetine for anxiety & ocd. I was also hoping it’s “dull” my sometimes overwhelming feelings.
tried for a while last year 10-20mg but not sure it made much difference.
shoukd I try for longer or am I expecting too much from this little pill?

That is a low dose for fluoxetine. For ocd doses go up to 60mg. And you need to take it at least a month at a decent dose to have effect.

Dr should have reviewed dose and symptoms the dose is very low which probably isn't enough
Go back to your GP

Thanks. The drs I’ve seen just don’t seem very interested. Is it actually likely to fill these overwhelming feelings?!
ive taken citalopram before and I think this may have dulled this a little. I stoped as was worried about the potential heart issues when I need antibiotics

Bump

Anyone?
