You should always ask the Doctor Who prescribed you the medication about these matters. Sudden withdrawal effects (in some cases extreme) can occur.

Why do i feel worse taking SSRI's?

It is believed that SSRIs can actually increase anxiety and agitation initially, and some think that this is why some patients feel worse. Others think that SSRIs actually make you feel worse at the beginning but this will change later. I don't think that doctors have reached a conclusion on this. Because there is a significant record of suicides after just taking an SSRI, I strongly advise you to immediately seek help. Your doctor may add an anxiolytic, switch to different SSRI or may try an other class of anti-depressants.
