> FYI: Based on the information I got on this board (mostly from Wayne R) I've just joined the Naltrexone club. I'm stable on 40-50 mg. Prozac but I'm at risk for another poop out and I'm already having difficulty with the side effects of prozac. I don't want to go off it but I would like to take less, and if it poops out again I can't tolerate a higher dose.

Trying to get up to 25mg. Feel more mellow and relaxed. Less "wired" from the prozac. Slightly spacey though. Thought the prozac was beginning to poop out yesterday, but I'm hanging at 50mg prozac (and 60 buspar) and I'm going to wait and see what happens.
Thanks for the update John L. It's a little scary that it seems to be only me and you.
