has anyone tried prozac? i have major depressive disorder and had to go off of wellbutrin/bupropion for seizures even though it worked the best for me. in terms of physical and mental health, what are your experiences?
I was on Prozac for maybe about 3 months. It gave me extreme vertigo for 3 weeks straight along with hypersensitivity, nausea and vivid dreams. It made me very miserable but hopefully if you try it it wonāt affect you the same way. Iām on Wellbutrin now and i have none of the symptoms i had while i was on Prozac.
unfortunately yes. seizures have stopped which was the priority lol but so far iāve been/experienced:
more lightheaded and dizzy
more pelvic pain (also could be bc i just had an unexpected cycle)
shakiness and tremors and chills
more fatigued
less motivation
an even smaller appetite
and the best of all, more depressed with my other associated emotions/diagnoses lol <3
i knew going off from 450mg would be tough, but itās definitely different than SSRIs. luckily have not had brain zaps :)
ugh! I hope they all resolve soon! Im coming off 150xl - some anxiety today on day 4.5ā¦ā¦praying this is it. Side effects going onā¦.side effects coming off and in your case seizures too! So crazy!
Prozac worked amazingly for my mom, and mother in law, and ex-partner, and worked really really terribly on me. It's different for absolutely everybody unfortunately. I was on Celexa for a while and it was great but the withdrawal sucked when I quit.
Iām on prozac, it works differently for everyone. I am perfectly fine on it and even better than before. Though I have generalized anxiety disorder so my brain may work a bit differently. We tried this back when I was 7 years old and on liquid prozac, it helped then, and I went back on it about a year and a half ago. I would say be cautious, it is a black label and can be dangerous.
