Prozac for CPTSD: Does it work?

All medications react differently with each person. Some people have really successful experiences with prozac while others don't. If you don't think it's helping, I'd see if your doctor has another idea of what to try ^^

Hi! I take prozac for depression rather than my cptsd, but it still works like a charm! I had to up my dose quite a bit - at 45 mgs currently - before it started really working. If you're looking to calm night terrors, ask about Prazosim ( idk how to spell it )! It makes u sleep plus keeps away nightmares. Unfortunately, a side affect if prozac is very vivid dreams, so nightmares may be worse if you still get them :( hope this helped!

No medication works the same for everyone. All medications you usually have to wait at least 2 weeks to start seeing even a small difference. If it's been that long and isn't working then talk to your med provider. If they don't listen find a new provider. If doing this takes too long then I recommend going to a crisis center in your area for help. The crisis center I went to had providers that listened.
