> Wow, I was on Proac 60mg, Wellbutrin 300mg, and Klonopin 3-4mg for 10 years, too!! And for the past year or so I was soooooooooooooo tired and sleepy all day long. Terrible.

> My pdoc said to cut back on the Klonopin, which i did very slowly. It was really hard. Very slow. I am now down to 1mg Klonopin and I am doing much better during the day. Much more awake and not wanting to lay down and take a nap all the time.

> Also, I just switched to Cymbalta. I am on Day 5. I spent the past month tapering off of Prozac. I find the Cymbalta to be mildly energizing. I feel more motivated and alert.
> It is mild, but it is there.

> So, that's my two cents for you. You have been on Prozac for so long, if I were you, I would give Cymbalta a try.

> My pdoc mention cymbalta last session, and now i'm really curious. i hate to ruin a good thing going with my happiness, but i definately need more energy to more fully enjoy my life. i quess giving cymbalta a try and discontinuing prozac wouldn't hurt. anyone else have any views on cymbalta or any experience of it giving increased energy levels?
