Are they worth taking, why do they take so long before they have any effect, why do you have to fill in a questionnaire asking how severe you feel after the gp has given them to you.

The questions are probably going to be at regular intervals to see if the medication is having any effect on your mood. A lot of the tablets have an immediate effect but full effects not felt for a few weeks or a month. It is a guide as everyboeids body reacts differently to different types of medication. Good luck! xxx

As I said Benji, everyone's body is different and will react differently. Serious side effects are rare. I was on these for a year or so the first time and a year the second with no side effects whatsoever and they really helped me whilst I was getting to grips with bulimia (as much as you can do with that), and then again a year or so later. Do read the information carefully and watch out for symptoms but try not to worry excessively. If you think it would help keep a log of your day, the dose you took and how you generally felt so you can look out for any changes over time. xxxxx

I have been on fluoxetine twice now... and am currently on it again!

For me is had worked really well, but as whats already been said different drugs work for different people.

I wish you all the best and I hope that you find something that works well for you!

Hey -

I have been on them for a while now, it took some time for the right adjustments to be

made. Give it time to work into your system, and time for them to see what is the

correct level for you.
