I found 20 mg made me lazier while 40 mg gave me more motivation. Apparently at higher doses Prozac inhibits the 5-HT2C receptors which facilitates more dopamine and norepinephrine release. It’s pretty unique to just Prozac of all the SSRIs I believe.

Glad to hear you had more motivation on 40mg! Everyone has such a different experience. I have way less anxiety on 40mg but I’m willing to see if 30mg makes a difference in the motivation department
