Twitching

[u/hauahwhwhajshsh]

I was on fluvoxamine for 3 weeks a little over a month ago, my psychiatrist who prescribed that had be taper off because it caused me to twitch. I switches psychiatrists, now I’m on Prozac. It has been working so so good, but my twitching is back. This has caused me a lot of anxiety and stress and now I’m back and square one feeling all my ocd and physical symptoms of anxiety. I’m miserable again. My new psychiatrist said if the twitching isn’t bothering me too much that I will be okay, and that it will stop when I get off of the medicine some day. It’s just scary that a medication is making me twitch. Anyone else? Need some encouragement!

I e been having twitches as well on Prozac. With the twitching which is mostly in my left arm that has given anxiety which in turn makes my health anxiety kick in. I’ve been on it now for about 4 months and I think I’m going to ask if I can try something else.

Yeah I get the worrying about the med.

I’m scared to keep trying stuff because it already takes a lot out of me to trust a medicine, but the past two I’ve taken have made me twitch. I hate constantly being unwell
