A question about anti depressants?!


Question: A question about anti depressants?
I have been put on anti depressants, this is my 8th day on them, I was just wondering what are the main side effects I will get from them if I am to get any, so far I have had a very irritable stomach, a lot of headaches and feeling very fatigue, the anti depressants I am taking are 'fluoxetine' since taking them I have also experienced ALOT of watery discharge, I was just wondering do the anti depressants have any thing to do with the watery discharge??.. Also I was wondering if any one on anti depressants can share their experiences with me, what side effects have you had and are the anti depressants working for you? Thanks
