Hello, i am Diagnosed with Anxious Depression for 6 years
-irritability, anger, hopelesness, feeling at the edge, nervousness, self abuse.
Been put on Fluoxetine 20mg for 9 weeks, at the week 5or6 depression lifted, but not the anxiety and insomnia (I have to take Lorazepam 1mg 1-1-1).
Previously i got an equilibrium of my anxiety and depression taking Fluoxetine 20mg one day, and next 10, and so on (20-10-20-10). The problem was that i tried to lower more the dose taking 20-10-10-10-20, and some weeks later i had a relapse, since mid october.
My reason is, taking into consideration my past expeirence with fluoxetine, what about trying Fluoxetine 20-10 alternately, i am afraid to cause a relapse, but i don't want to be on FLuoxetine 20mg having to take Lorazepam daily to control the anxiety and insomnia that gives me.
Any advices please, very welcome!
