I started taking fluoxetine yesterday, and now I feel awful. I was wondering if anyone had tips in order to reduce stomach aches, or any tips in general in order to get through the beginning.

I would also like to hide the fact that I'm taking some for personal reasons. Any tips for that aswell?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much! I started feeling jittery (and I don't drink coffee) and had a horrible stomach ache, so I was worried it would be visible that something is wrong. I feel less worried now. I'm now in the second day, I'm eating more and I don't have huge stomach aches.
