Hi,
I've recently been struggling with what seems to be a mix of depression and insecurity over my wife's new job. Her focus has always been VERY concentrated on the current "thing." Right now, that is the job and career. We've been married for almost 10 years and I've never struggled like this before - honestly feel like i want to crawl out of my skin. Saw my Dr almost 3 weeks ago and he put me on Prozac 10mg. Took that for one week and my counselor suggested I get it bumped to 20 mg, which I did. Took 10 mg for 1 week, now 20 mg for 12 days. I've not noticed any significant improvement. This is my first time taking any SSRI. Wife's reaction is to distance from me until I can "be happy," adding to my sadness and isolation. Is it too soon to be worrying that the 20 mg isn't going to work?
Thanks
