will the anxiety stop or should I stop
« on: January 15, 2010, 06:17:08 PM »
hi there.
trying prozac at baby amounts 2.5mgs, anymore and I can't take it even with ativan.
I've been on it for 9 days and feel like I'm on a roller coaster.
feel good in am, then crash in pm and anxiety is off the charts. usually manifests as health anxiety.
feel clammy and slightly sweaty all the time, like I'm detoxing from a big night.
on the up side, I've gotten more stuff done, even though my body seems to be moving faster than my brain or maybe it's the other way around.
does this sound right? am I being a big baby?
I would like others opinions as I tend to jump ship early on and am worried I'm running out of "safe" meds to try. I mean meds that I believe are "safe."

Hi,

I've never tried Prozac and have been lucky to do well on generic Celexa from the start, but IMO, it doesn't sound like Prozac is the med for you.  I do think a med check with your doctor is in order.  There are many different meds out there, precisely for the reasons you are describing.

Take care,
Feeling Optimistic :action-smiley-065:
