Prozac

[AlliApple]

I was put on prozac about a year ago and never found that it helped me. Every time I mentioned it to my doctor, he would just up the dosage. It made me feel exhausted, mentally exhausted all day. I just wanted to stay in bed all day and do nothing. I ended up stop taking it and I'm off all medication right now and feel better than I did on Prozac.

ok AlliApple it would be good if you talk to your doc and if he wont listen, change to someone who will. or what about going with a advocate who could help you put your concerns before the doc.

does your GP surgery have people that offer that help? i know at mine they do. its tough trying to communicate when you feel up against it. ask at reception and see if they could help you. its so helpful when you can communicate to the doc. oh and also the doc can refer you to other things say for instance relaxation classes.

Talk to your doc about the adverse effects of the medication, if he will not listen to you just change your doc.. Increasing dosage is not good for your health.. Consult with other therapist or GP..
