Anyone taking prozac?
 

Ive been taking that shit for a little over a week....seems to help...maybe just a little too much

Since I started taking it ive stoped working %95....

I'm not doing shit except maybe 30 min a day.... fortunatly my income didn't get affected (yet) but if I won't start working quick it will get affected....

anyone having the same problems? I'm thinking of stoping taking that shit...

No, I'm always happy...and don't need such "drugs".

Just say no to drugs.....

smoke weed instead...

:thumbsup you and me both

that's cool :D

why did you take prozac?

heh I smoke weed too :winkwink:

50% of peoples problems are mental, get right in your mind and leave the drugs behind :Graucho

well that explains alot about you.

Give it time.... it take a while for the serotonin levels in your brain to stablize to the changes.

Side effects fade over time....

Wow Oracle I am the 180 of that. I was on it for a few years (Insurance ran out) and I was more in-tune and was able to get more work done. But now being off it the voices have come back. :(

give it a little more time.

I worked well for me. But I was only taking 10 MG twice daily, don't know what your dosage is. Maybe lower the dosage to or up it to 10MG-2x a day

I started taking Zoloft a few years ago and noticed the same thing. My productivity was waaaaay down.

I eventually had to put the kaibosh on that shit. I'd rather be depressed and have money than happy and homeless.

Prozac needs 30 days to build up enough in your system to work properly. I never head of people getting tired/lazy but since it is given for depression I would assume that this is due to the depression and not the prozac.

hmmm ya? didn't u get it from my first post?

Does that mean you are happy everyday no matter how bad your sales are?

lol no...its not weed :1orglaugh

prozak has 0 effect on me... nadda.

Hehe, AND we are both SEXY :Graucho :Graucho

:1orglaugh

I read the same thing when I thought about taking it...

BTW

Just how many pills are you taking a day anyway? :helpme

yep.

1 every 24 hours

Try Paxil CR :thumbsup

Oh, I don't take prozac, I have a medical background so I just thought I would pass along to him the information both his doctor and pharmasist should have given him. Prozac is a once daily dose.

Paxil is a nasty drug. It may help some people but it has terrible side effects. Lexapro is alot cleaner.

19 yrs old and taking prozac?
is this considered normal?

why was this prescribed to you?

Nope I don't take anything that messes with my brain chemistry. I enjoy being pissed off sometimes. :Graucho

depression got nothing to do with age.

take acid all your problems sloved, you'll be very happy believe me

have you tried talking to a psychiatrist before taking prozac?

Why are you depressed?

Sometimes people have chemicals embalances in their brain, so a bad day for you could be 40x worse for them.

heh gfy isn't really the place to talk about stuff like that..... :winkwink:

Your body really has to get used to new drugs being introduced to your system. Some people have lose their sex drive, others lose all motivation at all.


It really upsets me how fast doctors dispense anti depressants. Its almost as though they were pez. When I was "depressed", I had no idea that a lot of my peers felt the same way. My GP said I should take zoloft or effexor which both made me violently ill. Pretty sad when she could have recommended a pyschologist to help me better manage my problems.


Sometimes I feel like a goddamn guinea pig.

*sigh*

give it time, u must of started for a reason, takes ilke 2 weeks to get used to it.

it takes 2 weeks for anti-depressants to kick in...

never took it, but heard lots about it though.

you sure you have to be on this drug?

prozac rock !

Prozac kicks in two week (stats) just like any other SSRI. That is why most doctors prescribe xantax or ativan along with their prescription.
