anxiety medication trouble
I was prescribed 10mg Cipralex tablets yesterday for my anxiety. I got home, sat on my bed and cried for what seemed like hours over the whole situation. I ended up not being able to bring myself to take it. I'm terrified of the unknown. I sat there contemplating in my head and reading information on the pill, it's side effects, what I can expect when I start to feel better, what upping the dosage could do, what stopping the pills could do. I consumed myself so much I almost threw myself into an anxiety attack just thinking about taking a damn pill. I am having the hardest time accepting that I need this, that I need to feel better.
Have any of you gone through anything like this when you started anti anxiety/antidepressant medication? I'm struggling and it's all I can think about while I'm sitting here at work.
