I’ve been on prozac since I was 15. I’m 22 now and kinda wanna stop. I honestly am not the best at taking My prozac anyway but I was consistent till recently. I want to try life without it or even maybe another medication. I don’t know. I’m just tired of all these meds and side affects.

I am worried lamictal is making me less able to have happy emotions. Do you feel like it has helped you separately?

I've been on soooo many different antidepressants, and none of them have worked. Then I was prescribed Trintellix, and it helped A LOT. It's always worth a shot if something doesn't work out.

I used Zoloft and Wellbutrin. It seems to work well for me. I take Strattera for my ADHD.
