You are welcome! I think if you've been through something bad and came out the other side all right, then you should share that! Give others some hope, that things are not okay right now, but they will be okay one day! ^_^

It's normal to feel nervous about taking medication like anti-depressants. When I started taking them, I was worried they would "change me" and I would act like a different person. I was also worried about the side effects too.

I learned that:

It takes a while to start feeling like they are working, for me it was nearly a month. So I tell people, don't take them for a week and say, "these aren't working!"

The side effects were really mild, the only sort of bad side effect was my hands feeling shaky but that went away after a week or so.

They don't "change" who you are. For me, it was like they swept the depression aside and I was able to BE myself again. I was lost in a dark place for a long time and didn't even know it at first.

I trusted my family/friends/doctors to notice things about me or my behaviour. When there is a change in you, they will likely notice it before you do!

Most important!! Keep a journal, notebook, whatever and start it the day you start taking the medication. Add the date and how you were feeling. If you can keep that up for at least a month or more, then look back over all you wrote, you can see how much better you are doing!

Sorry this was so long!! Good Luck with the medication, I'm sure it will be just fine. :)
