Desperate for sleep while on Prozac I finally tried an OTC medication ie Nytol (anti histamine). I slept like a baby and when I woke up I could lay there quite relaxed which I haven't been able to do since taking Prozac because it seemed to activate me horrendously.
The other strange thing was that I felt less depressed the next morning...a kind of back to the old me feeling where I walked around my house loving everything about it and my place in life etc etc. By the afternoon that had worn off.
Do antihistamines have an anti depressant effect or calming effect which might give my doctor an idea of something else that I might need to augment the Prozac with that would prevent the insomnia and agitation
