> Hi Mitch, long time no talk, lol! As always, I have a question for ya (big surprise huh?) My pdoc just switched me from Zoloft to Prozac due to horrible weight gain. I took 25 mg. of Zoloft once a day for anxiety/obsessing. It worked great. Now she has taken me off it and put me on 5 mgs. Prozac. Do you know if I will get the same anti-anxiety effect on Prozac? I am on day two of half of Zoloft and have already cried twice, this is NOT fun! Any ideas/advice for me?
RBL,
I liked Prozac the best of the SSRI's (barring side effects). Horrible weight gain with Zoloft? I did have carbohydrate cravings and restless legs at nite. So, are you withdrawing from the Zoloft before you even start the Prozac?
