Prozac Side Effects: Anyone Else Experiencing Worsened Anxiety?

has anyone tried or currently take Prozac? I'm on day 7 and today has been the worse so far. anxiety is higher than it was. they tell me to give it a few weeks and my anxiety might get worse before it gets better but I'm not sure if I can handle the worse anxiety for that long? I go back to my Dr appt Friday to try to get something to help til the Prozac kicks in

Hi, all these SSRI drugs take time to work. Sometimes even a few weeks. I also suffered at the very beginning, and only after a month or so did I start to feel balanced under the treatment. I suggest to use a little more patience, soon it will start working. Of course, if you feel that it is not as it should be, you can always go to the doctor for advice.
