In reply to Postive Experiences with Prozac???, posted by traveler on February 17, 2004, at 18:35:28
Prozac was the first AD I took, and at that time, it saved my life. Because of chronic back pain, I suffered from unipolar depression which is major depression with no mania and I was unable to function. 2 months later, I was able to go back to work and was back to my old self. Prozac is an excellent med. Don't let negative things you hear scare you. I started feeling my depression lifting after 2 weeks from when I first took it.

> I don't read much about prozac anymore, with all the other meds out there. I was on serzone for a couple of years for anxiety and panic, but it started to lose its effectiveness. My doctor recently prescribed Prozac, for what he decribed as my "obsessive thoughts". I have started out at a low dose (5 mg) and recently raised (10 mg) - and I was just curious about people who have had good expreiences with this med. Oh yeah, I am starting to reduce the Serzone slowly because the thought of withdrawal scares me.
