Q: Update On My Medicine....

well no really bad side effects from the prozac. i went from crying all the time to now not giving a crap. its would be really hard to piss me off.. i talked to a therapist and he said not caring is one way to deal with my husband so i guess its ok to feel this way. when someone trys to piss me off or gets to me i just laugh. sometimes i have a hard time to stop laughing.

lol i think its a great thing.. not giving a crap about things that irritate u is a great way to be a better person.

Thats how ive come to conquer my problems.. instead of getting mad.. dude i LAUGH. Thats the best. I dont get nearly as mad anymore.

I used to be on Zoloft.. I stopped taking it because it caused severe RLS and it was keeping me up more at night than the depression.

zoloft is bad! i had an episode of "depersonalization" while I was on it so they took me off of it. And then put me right back on. I hated being on zoloft for depression because I felt like I wasn't really in touch with anything. I felt like I was floating through my day. I'd rather feel depressed than feel nothing at all.

i actually had to go to the hospital to detox from zoloft! That's why I don't take the script that I have now. The doctors were all acting like it was normal and told me not to stop taking it. Yeah, right! Rolling Eyes If it does all that, I ain't takin' it!

for a while they switched me to paxil but i was still depressed so they switched me back to zoloft and changed out my xanax to something else. can't think of the name and don't have the bottle in front of me right now.

jaime, if you feel that anything is wrong with your med, do not hesitate to talk to your doc. if you're okay with it, then fine. but if you ever feel like it's not right for you for whatever reason, make them listen to you.

Glad you're feeling better. Im on zoloft, it helps me. I get times some nights where I have like an anxiety attack thing, its awful. So I'll mention it to my doctor when I see him in 2 weeks, maybe he'll put the dose up again, or tell me I have to live with that. I take 100mg a day and he told me it can be put upto 200mg if necessary.

Prozac made me too tired.

Lexapro made me feel like that. Oni would SCREAM while I was driving and I would just laugh. It was strange...

BUT, it made me sweat A LOT! And I couldn't have an orgasm to save my LIIIFE!!! SO I stopped taking it without my Dr's concent. I was only on it for about a month.
