Thats true about blaming yourself. I wish I never took prozac. When I was 16 my mom and her psych thought I should take it. I wish I never had so I usually end up blaming my mom or myself for not just lying and hiding the pills somewhere.
Or never telling anyone that I felt bad.I feel stupid with a poor memory, and concentration, and blunted after taking that drug, never felt that way before. I used to play the guitar and was on my way to becoming a professional musician. Now I'm just sitting in a boring temp job, because I have no drive, and gain no reward from attempting more difficult tasks and have trouble concentrating.
None of this existed before taking prozac.
Post-SSRI syndrome: iatrogenic anhedonia, memory and concentration problems, sexual dysfunction. [NOTE no sadness or anxiety, this is NOT depression!]
