Prozac

[Robertc160882]

Hi All,

Just thought that I would let everyone know that I'm now starting to see some benefits from the Prozac. Not a 100% better yet but feel like I'm getting there and that there is some light at the end of the tunnel :-).

Side effects have almost gone for me (Day 16)

So that alone makes me feel happy lol.

Looks like you already have the first side effect....

Double post syndrome !

The side effects for the first week and part of the second week were fine but after that I got really bad. The only reason for this though is that I have a low tolerance to SSRI's but I think Prozac is a good drug once it begins working.

I'm a bit better again today but tired as didnt get much sleep last night as one side effect is the lack of sleep lol.

Ride it out though as it will be worth it.

I took Prozac for a month and the side effects never went away, I felt more anxious than ever and just couldn't cope on them. I'm glad they work great for some people though, just wish I could find the right one for me

I still dont feel fuly back to normal yet but know that I'm getting there and it has generally took about three weeks for me to perk up a bit. I seem to find myself looking forward to stuff now but still have bad days like today isnt that great but I'm better able to deal with it.

The thing I have found with prozac is that it takes a lot longer to work i.e. get in the system and make any small change. I still feel anixous and panic when it is time to go to bed but I'm sure that will shift in time.
