OK, I have an update: so I have been taking this drug 5mg since Tuesday. I still feel like crap. I findd some beginnign side effects especially bothersome - I would hve extreme highs and lows.. with sweating, clammy hands and feet, feeling shocks in my brain especially the back of my head, blurriness, and feeling tingling in my mouth throat and stomach.. i have 0 appetite. nausea, dizziness, aggitation, constant ringing in my ears, disruptive sleep.. waking up several times, having bad dreams, up to 5 dreams every time I sleep.. During the highs, my sweating, breathing, heart rate and clamminess increased.. I would feel this almost insanity.. couldnt sit still.. this happened in school and I felt like bouncing off a wall but it felt HORRIBLE...I wanted to smash my head in.. i kept jerking my head in class and people noticed I was going nuts! I told all of tese things to my parents and they did not believe me.. they thought I was fabricating symptoms!! My mom laughed at me!

On Friday I woke up with such an intense headache that i could not wake up! Consequently, I stayed home.. Luckily some of these side effects are subsiding.. but I did not in any way shape or form exaggerate or make them up when this began.. why cant they beleive me?? Now, I feel like a drone. I'm extremely exhausted and stressed out. I find it even more difficult to wake up or talk to people than before. And I still feel 'depressed'.

I cant belive a parent would give their child this kind of medication.. i took prozac before but I dont recall having these kind of side effects cept for heart racing and tremors.. Just cos Im not their ideal definition of 'normal' doesn mean they can drug me up like this! My mom threatened to shove it down my throat! This is parenting???

edit: also im a female.. not taht it really matters.. but anyways. yes my psychologist also set me up with a therapist.. i probably posted this thread in the wrong forum area.. ho well..
