A question about depression and anger. Medical advice (UK)?!
Question: A question about depression and anger!. Medical advice (UK)!?
I am having a pretty hard time of things just now!. I have depression and binge eating disorder ( i have suffered from anorexia and bulimia in the past)!. I am taking 60mg of fluoxetine but it doesn't seem to be making a difference; i've been taking it for 3 months!.
The problem is that I am finding that I am getting more and more mood swings and I am getting quite angry over trivial things!. I have really felt like lashing out at people at times which is just not like me at all!.
I am wondering what is causing it and how I can combat!. I am waiting for treatment at the moment, but the waiting list is 1 year long!.
please help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Yes Prozac can effect moods!. You will find the list of contra-indications and side effects in a leaflet inside your Box of tablets!.
Well done in seeking help for your conditions!.
My best and only advice to you at present is to get an emergency appointment with your GP or CPN tomorrow!.
There is no quick fix and as you are aware anti depressant or anti anxiety drugs do take a few months before having any effect, therefore any change in medication is not going to produce a quick result for you!.
Your GP or CPN may be able to chase up your appointment to see if it can be brought forward or may be able to suggest another avenue in another area!.
Half the battle in dealing with your mood swings and eating disorders are in knowing and accepting you have them!.
That means you have already come a long way!.
I do not know of any on line groups that may enable you to seek assist while you wait but I bet there are fellow suffers out there who can point you in this direction
Here is hoping to good days ahead of you and do not forget to make that appointment with your GP or CPN tomorrow!.
Luck and best wishes
