I just wrote about this another persons question. When I started taking Prozac, I felt fine, but after a few months, I started feeling more depressed. I did some research and found out about the drug Bupropion aka Wellbutrin. It’s just helped me take the edge off the feeling I was having.

I just did this a few weeks ago. You'll be fine. Albet a little nauseous and tired. Maybe a little more anxious for awhile. But the transition was much easier then the 10-20mg jump becausw im already used to having prozac in my system

My only recommendation is to be careful drinking alcohol! With Prozac, I started at like 5 or 10 mg and take 60 now. Super easy transitions. Never noticed anything major or negative
