Need Some Information

Hello, i'm a 15 year old guy who is in his Sophomore year of High School. I have been diagnosed with severe depression 3 years ago after cutting and a suicide attempt. After that point, I was prescribed Fluoxitine and have been on it ever since. Since then, my depression has been tolerable. But of late, i have been experiencing minor hallucinations, "messages" in things such as books, and an intense response to mental stress such as homework which includes screaming or staring into space. These response start off with me feeling sad for a short time, then with me becoming enraged. I would appreciate any information if these symptoms match up to any illness. Thank you for your time.

Report these new symptoms to your therapist and psychiatrist as soon as possible.  It's something they need to know about in case it's the medication or you need an adjustment with your medication.
