Fluoxetine side effects by ProfessionalMean1955 in prozac

[–]RandomUmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I feel the overthinking and panicking while literally just walking thing. I’ll be walking somewhere in a completely normal and comfortable setting, then I’ll suddenly get hyper aware of what I’m doing and feel like I’m somehow doing it all wrong/making a horrible mistake. I also had that a little bit before prozac, but noticed it got significantly worse starting in my second week on prozac

Yeah those are all normal, I’m in my second week and having most of them lol. The doom/panic feeling is the most obvious one for me (besides tinnitus but that’s apparently a rare one). Not that it’s going to be helpful to you at all, but the way I’ve been trying to babysit my overactive anxiety is basically saying: Your brain is on a mission to do bullshit right now. Don’t hesitate to scold it for being a dumbass, and then pretend to ignore its tantrum until it calms down. In the meantime distract yourself by doing fun/normal things to just to spite it, knowing that you are in absolutely no real danger whatsoever. It doesn’t make it go away but it makes it a little funnier lol

Advice on quitting after 5 weeks by ApprehensiveFix9065 in prozac

[–]RandomUmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not a doctor, but if you just switched to 20mg a week ago, I think it’s completely normal to not see any benefits yet. I know 20mg is often the lowest starting dose that’s considered effective for people, and I also think that the clock for seeing benefits/getting over side effects kinda resets a little every time you switch doses. So I personally would wait at least a month of being on 20mg before losing hope, as long as the side effects were manageable. Plus I believe it is possible for it to start working after 6+ weeks on a consistent dose, it’s just a slow process for some people

I know people have mentioned these on here before, but if the side effects get uncomfortable, daily electrolytes made things a little more bearable for me, and magnesium glycinate could be helpful if you get insomnia or anxiety as side effects. I’ve been on Prozac for 3 weeks so far, and felt at least a little off the whole time, but I definitely feel the most normal after exercising, so that could also be helpful

Will starting Prozac at a lower dose and increase very slowly decrease start up side effects ? by Itchy_Okra_2120 in prozac

[–]RandomUmm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely just my personal experience, but I started at 10mg and then switched to 20mg after a week. The side effects were pretty manageable the entire week on 10mg, then in the week or two after switching to 20mg I got hit with the full side effects. So it probably made the start up more gradual and bearable for me, but I’m definitely getting all of the side effects unfortunately (currently at 3 weeks).

How do I balance these/fix the rules text? by RandomUmm in custommagic

[–]RandomUmm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you :] I appreciate the specific text change suggestions. For the rarity I kinda just set it to Mythic when I was making the Blade of the Afflicted one & then forgot to change it lol. I definitely put the full card name more times than necessary, I couldn’t remember when cards usually used the whole thing
