Taking that 1st tablet was a little daunting, especially after reading the information sheet with all the possible side effects. For example, "people taking XYDEP (same as zoloft) may be more likely to think about killing themselves or actually try to do so, especially when it is first started or the dose is changed"...EEK!!! Oh well, all in the name of feeling "better".
I was easily agitated (more than normal) for the 1st couple of days on meds. Every 2 yo tantrum had me heading of to my room saying, "I can't deal with this anymore" followed by telling myself "it's only the drugs"...which strangely seemed to help. Thankfully though, I didn't start having thoughts of self harm or worse!

You are a star Relle, being able to think so clearly like that...but with your smarts, its not surprising.
