Anyone else feel like fluoxetine takes away any and all motivation? At least when you're at home? I've been postponing so many things and I never used to procrastinate this bad before I was on these meds. Just makes me feel insanely incapable. All I want to do at home is "be lazy" yet in my mind I really really want to be productive, I just can't bring myself to actually do the things I need and want to do. I hate feeling this way :(

      Oh shoot, I've noticed I've been more low motivation than usual for a while now, never considered it could have been my switch to fluoxetine. Be kind to yourself and take things a step at a time. It is a terrible feeling. Take triumph in every task you succeed in doing despite not having the motivation, no matter how small.

      Yeah… I’m doing my best to be patient with it though. That saying- rest when you need to, because your body will do it if you don’t.
