Prozac anyone?

Prozac really helps me out, I have really bad panic attacks.

Both my parents have been on Prozac, it worked for my mum I guess but it made my dad very agressive.

It can make you completely lose your appetite for 3-4 days and have panic attacks and worse depression than before you went on it. But this usually only lasts a week or two, then your mood starts to lift. I haven't been on it myself, but a close friend is at the moment and that's what he said it was like at first. Oh and he said he couldn't sleep for the first few nights on it. So yeah, maybe like a scared cat at first.

Prozac SAVED MY LIFE! despite what many people above say, prozac worked AWESOME for me. I have been on it for about 4 years now (but I did have very mild depression and took it mainly for focusing before I found out I had ADD. I tried many others like Effexor and just as many swear by that, it made me extremely agressive. Best thing to do is just try it out...you will have a god and natural indication after a few weeks whether it is working for youself.

I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with Prozac. I've been taking it at 20mg, for bulimia and depression. I haven't noticed any side effects, but I haven't noticed it helping me out much, either. So we'll see.

Medications affect people in different ways. I'm sorry you had a negative effect with Prozac. For me, prozac was the only thing that worked. I have no side effects, however I am only taking 20 mg daily.
