Lately I keep having these dreams where people I love die. They seem so real I wake up and I'm crying for ages just as if it were real. I'm being treated for depression/ suicidal thoughts so could the dreams just be me showing myself how bad it would be for everyone else if I did do it? As they do seem to come when I'm either really depressed or contemplating sui? It's just weird because I hardly ever dream anyway! Why do you think I keep dreaming it? How do I stop it and could it be a side effect of fluoxetine? ~jess.

I am sorry that you're having these awful dreams buy yes one of the side affects with fluoxetine is unusal dreams, Maybe it might worth mentioning it to your doctor or pdoc?

yeah i think i will, so many things that are possible side effects keep popping up so they said they might change my meds soon. AHA its 3 in the morning and i still haunt.slept! Im doing a full days work tomorrow a 9 hour shift. i have to get up at 7 because my bus is at 8 -- i still havnt slept Im exhausted!! x

I remember when I took citalopram. I used to have vivid dreams. It wasn't pleasant.

Medication can cause really weird dreams. When I had a cold and I would take NyQuil my dreams would be really off the wall!
