when i was younger i was on zoloft and i remember the first 2 weeks were realy weird, lots of nausea, insomnia, sweating, etc and then by week 3 i started feeling better all around, i was on that for 5 years with very little side effects, just some fatigue and a bit of sexual side effects, but it helped my stomach and anxiety immensely.
wellbutrin made me really anxious and edgy and gave me bad GERD, i took that for a year then finally gave up.I am now on lexapro and doing very well, anxiety is so much better controlled, stomach is calmer as a result, the first week i was nauseous and crampy, the second week less, by week 3 i was good to go. It is weird though because i am super sensitive to anything that i put in my body, yet AD's have always agreed with me very well compared to some people. Atomic rose had bad D and severe nausea for the first 2 weeks where she was on dramamine constantly. We are all different, you just have to ride it out, if by week 4 you are not starting to feel better and week 6 you are not on track then ask to switch meds, but you have to give it at least 2-3 weeks min.
