> My name is Treg, and I'm 65. I've been on some kind of psychotropic medications almost continuously since I was 18 for very refractory, hard-to-treat major depression with psychotic features.. I was on Cymbalta when Hurricane Katrina washed away everything I owned, and I didn't even care. I was unasble to grieve and mourn. Now I am taking 20 mg of Prozac and find that I've become extremely apathetic. I don't do anything except what's absolutely necessary. My once active mind is now innocent of any ideas or thoughts. I have nothing to say to anyone. Is the Prozac causing this? Is this common?
Can you give us a little more info on the drugs you took in the past? Have you ever tried a mood stabilizer to augment an AD? Any combos of ssri/tricyclic? MAOI's? SNRI's?
