Hi all, I'm new here. Im a 23yr old woman and I've been reading a lot on this site and you all are so helpful. I have anxiety, panic disorder, and slight depression. This all just came about not even a year ago. I started out worrying about everything and getting heart palpitations. I was in the hospital about 4 times for my heart. Got ekgs, 24hr heart monitor everything is fine. They said I have anxiety. I ended up taking medicine for something and it heightened my anxiety and depression and since that I've had about 3 or 4 panic attacks. I just started Prozac 3 days ago. I was so terrified of taking any medicine and I fought with myself for about a week before I decided to take this. I'm starting to feel the side effects. My heart won't stop pounding and I feel very anxious I'm scared to be by myself and I have to go back to work today and I'm scared. I'm a mom of a 2yr old and I just want to be back to my normal self. I've read mostly good things about Prozac so I'm hoping this will be the help I need. I'm just so scared of how these first 2 weeks are going to go while its building up
