I have been off the 60mg/day dosage of Prozac that I had been taking for 10 days now. I stopped cold turkey on my own due to the following: 1) health care provider no longer in business, 2) unable to get a new doctor before meds ran out, 3) weight gain regardless of exercise or dieting, 4) "NO" sex drive, 5) insominia and I'm sure I could go on. I am looking for a new doctor now as I am starting to feel suicidal. If it were not for my children I would be gone by now. I'm feeling really helpless and mentally pained. Is there anyone out there taking an antidepressant or some combination that does not cause weight gain, insomnia and loss of libido? I can't afford the weight gain, at this point I'm overweight by about 70+ pounds which also adds to my depression. I look forward to any and all replies!!!!!!
