After visiting my doctor today I have decided to start on 10 mg of Prozac daily again. I'm a little nervous about getting used to the med in my system, any helpful advise to make it easier to get used to or to be comfortable with would be greatly appreciated.

I used to be on Prozac a long time ago. I had intense nausea to start with, but I found that was helped by taking the medication with a little food. Also, the nausea wore off completely after a couple of weeks. At the time I started taking Prozac, my main problem was depression and an eating disorder. The Prozac definitely helped. I stayed at 20 mg a day for a long time. After some time I went up in dose, but I think it worked best for me at 20 mg.

It sounds like perhaps you have taken Prozac before? Really hope it helps you! Good luck!
