Well a few weeks ago I switched from Lexapro to Prozac (Fluoxetine). This was the first anti-depressant that worked for me 20 years ago and I felt like a change so I went back on it. Two weeks later I feel more energetic and generally happier.

I've been on a heap of psych meds; including Zoloft, Lexapro and Effexor, and I gotta say Prozac is the King. I know these things all work differently for different people but I think Prozac is always worth a shot.

I was always tired and I remembered Prozac is more "zippy" than Lexapro (even the doctor said that) so I decided to give it a go.

Oh! That's what I was on. If you go alright on that then you could try switching to Prozac, or have you tried it?

I had prozac many years ago, I liked it. I just switched when the doctor suggested Lexapro.
