So since February I've been trying to come off Prozac 20mg after 7years. I found Prozac had started to make me more and more anxious. It seemed to have popped out.
So I tapered down to 5mg, and felt fine for months, been tough but I felt excited to come off.
The last two months I've been able to work and do overtime, I've been moody though and I felt myself becoming more and more anxious. I wanted to cry all the time or lash out.
So I saw my GP and we decided 10mg of Prozac would help me out a bit, straightaway though after a week the symptoms I had back in Febuary came back, and I feel more depressed than ever.
So I've seen my dr today and he's given me cipralex. I was on them back in 2008 for a few months and I'm very nervous to take them again.
I feel sad all my tapering Prozac has come to nothing, but I really need something now.
My doctor has given me 10mg of cipralex, I'm so nervous. I'll be taking my first tablet tonight before bed.
