I'm taking pills for my anxity which I just started last Friday.

All day today I've had nausa, my stomach has been hurting, I've been feeling dizzy and like I'm going to pass out, and just walking has been making me very tired and making my heart beat very fast.

Is this side effects from the pills?

My mom says I'm just worrying about it and there is nothing wrong. What the heck?

Did you get any literature to read with the pills? Google the name of the pill, and check out the side effects.

Try telling her that as a comeback when you throw up.

*bluegh*
Think there's something wrong with me NOW?!

Wikipedia is a nice place for pill research. Try there.

When there's a fact that you may need-ia, look it up on Wikipedia.

...Although I wouldn't stop there. Look at other medicine websites. Health is something that shouldn't be taken as lightly as your head might be from taking the pills and I'll stop appending to this long string of gibberish starting right now.

are you taking them WITH anything?

a lot of meds say not to take them on an empty stomach... take them with milk at least

also, if it's a one-time-a-day pill, tryexperimenting with the time of day you take it at.

i'm on some meds and when i first started taking them in the morning, they made me sicker than anything. now i take em at night and am fine. go figure
