I don't think you necessarily psyched yourself out. Sexual side effects of SSRI's are so notorious that I'm way more surprised when people have none than when they have some. It is even hitting the mainstream in the form of TV shows. There was a Sex and the City episode where a potential male friend had chosen the relative peace that comes with Prozac over a sex life.
And anxiety and insomnia are absolutely typical start up effects, especially if you're rather prone to anxiety.
You might want to post the med part of the question on (plain) Psycho-Babble, the medication board. But I would aquit yourself of causing the side effects. :)
