Hi so I'm only on my 4th day of taking antidepressants due to depression, anxiety and S/H.
Yesterday I almost felt normal and happier at work. Also i know it's bad, but I had 4 glasses of wine last night. I know it canmake symptoms worse but I disregarded any of my rational, sensible thoughts. By the 3rd glass, my head felt funny. I stopped after 4. I knew I had had enough. I had more left and normally I'd drink it.
Today I woke up in a panic. Thought I had slept though my alarm but I still had 10 minutes. My heart has been pounding too.
Yesterday I felt positive. Today I feel sad and anxious and on the verge of tears. Nothing has happened either.
I'm guessing this is normal to have ups and downs?Also I know it's bad, but I do have the uegeto S/H today. I'm off to work and feeling low.
I've been having back pain, feeling nauseous at times and sometimes tired. I'm wondering if this is the medication.

Thanks very much. Sorry for the late reply. Good tips.
Looking forward actually to my appointments this week. Will definitely report side effects. Still having a bit of back pain and nausea. Not sure if it's related but I didn't get that until I started my medication.
