Discuss with doctor: There are many possibilities-- you may have bipolar disorder, low thyroid, taking antacids which reduce absorption of fluoxetine, may need bupropion added, may be drinking alcohol, may have other medical illnesses complicating the picture, may need a higher dose of fluoxetine. Please meet with your prescribing Psychiatrist and discuss in detail.

MEDICATION: Best to discuss medication with your Psychiatrist. If uncomfortable with your Dr. consult another for a second opinion. Have a physical exam by a Dr. to determine if you have a physical illness. Consult with a Clinical Psychologist for psychotherapy with ZOOM sessions. Fears and anxiety could be heightened due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Stay safe & hopeful to elevate your immune system.
