If you still feel worse rather than better in 10 days, go and talk to your GP about reviewing your medication. S/he might tell you the symptoms are completely normal, but it's always worth double checking.

Also check the information that came with the drugs. You will probably find that your symptoms are among the stated side effects. Don't worry, they should pass.
it takes at least 3 weeks before the serotonin levels are adjusted and the re-uptake process is blocked, which is probably why Kinky Vixen is feeling all over the place.
mind you, this all depends on what medication it is.
