I have been described prozac recently for depression and anxiety but mainly anxiety. my psychiatrist said to ring her if i feel like im going to seriously harm myself as in some rare cases a side effect makes people want to harm themselves. But i already self harm occasionally, which she knows. and i often feel like i want to die and think about suicide.

So if i do feel like i want to harm myself, how will i know if its just me being "normal" or a side effect caused by the medication?

I am so lonely that I don’t really want to live anymore. I am NOT going to commit suicide, but I do idealize it as the cure for my pain. How can I get through this?
