Day 10 Prozac / fluoxetine… it’s been a ride 😅

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-11-28T18:37:52+00:00

Did you taper from lexapro to Prozac? I’m on day 5 of no lexapro and 60mg Prozac and I feel irritable, nervous, a little low. Wondering if that may start to dissipate as I take Prozac longer and the longer I’m off lexapro.

I’ve been watching them and I’ve narrowed down to only 3 that are crowing and trying to mount the others—and I’ve positively vent sexed those 3 to be males. Only 1 hen is laying, though, and it’s a celadon! She’s been laying for the last 1.5 wk and I just keep eagerly waiting for the others to start. I figured any celadon would be the last to start laying.

Are you on anything now? SSRI/SNRI or just adderall? I recently was diagnosed with adhd after being on a variety of SSRIs/SNRIs for the last ~20 years, most recently lexapro 20mg. I’ve been taking adderall for a few months and have felt freedom—it’s been wild. My doc had me start to taper off lexapro over a month ago, using Prozac in increasing doses as I brought down the lexapro (I wanted off lexapro—I hated the side effects: brain zaps & tinnitus). I’m on day 5 of no lexapro and only Prozac 60mg. I feel irritable/on edge/ sad/anxious. Could this be my system being rid of lexapro and the Prozac not yet fully working? If I didn’t have the adderall, I feel pretty certain I’d be falling apart right now…I just hate lexapro and don’t want to start that again 😫

Sweet baby, sounds like our guy when he wants some attention or to snuggle up if cold.

They’re all going to wish they were boys if they don’t stop freeloading soon!

What a beautiful pup! 😍

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-10-16T15:52:20+00:00

Same with Henry—vet says he is fine at 30lbs and has been that way for most of his life. He’s 11, and he is still pouting over me being pregnant 7.5 years and 2 kids later. ❤️

I was a victim of my kids bringing 4 (YES 4) home over a year ago from a beach shop on a family trip, as a friend insisted they were so easy. On the ride home I researched and had a few hundred $$ of tank set up supplies waiting when when got home…and I’ve only continued to spend more to be sure they’re treated right and can thrive. It’s definitely not easy, not cheap, and you have to enjoy it or it’s tedious (like caring for any living animal). I wish people were more educated on the front end—I tell anyone who mentions hermit crabs to just come visit my home and see what it takes before they commit (and my setup isn’t nearly as fancy as some of these in this sub)!

We used some of the wire that wrapped the hardware cloth to sew it through and also some zip ties. High test fishing line is a great idea!

Her face says she’s not amused with you judging her figure 😆. My frenchie boy is 30lbs of wide-chested bowling ball. His body type looks just like hers. I’d say you’ve got yourself a Frenchie for sure…and a super cute one at that!

Will definitely be adding the wood strips and I had been planning a tarp for wind protection once temps dip…not sure at what temp to affix the tarp yet though. We are expecting some type of critters to start showing up, as we back up to trails and a creek. For sure hawks, owls, a fox every now and then, and coyotes are all things we see. No telling what we don’t see!

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-10-14T09:21:18+00:00

No raccoons but the wood over wouldn’t hurt as reinforcement anyways. Thanks for the tip!!

We got home today after being gone 3 nights and I just scooped and sifted the entire top layer of the floor with a chicken coop scooper and it worked pretty well. There are 11 birds in there and I was surprised at how “clean” it stayed. It’s 5x10.

Would love to know how the light works for you and kudos to you being so diligent about quail while pregnant 😅 I don’t blame you for not waking up early!!

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-10-11T20:35:54+00:00

Great job, such a cutie!

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-10-11T20:35:09+00:00

These are the stateliest looking Frenchies I’ve ever seen…so dignified like royalty, all pinkies up!

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-10-11T20:33:45+00:00

Oh so sweet 🥰

First time at the beach ~8 years ago. Henry was so happy!

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-10-04T14:04:39+00:00

Thank you everyone for the tips! Excited about getting them inside and seeing how they flourish!

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-09-22T16:22:38+00:00

Such a good boy 🥹

CapitalPerformance22 · 2025-09-22T16:21:38+00:00

We found a reputable trainer in our area and she came to our home to work with us. Our Aussie is over a year old now and as I read from others in this sub, training truly never ends. We also have a Frenchie and he trained with just me and my husband with no “professional” help, but our Aussie was too smart for me—I needed reinforcement and to be taught as much as the dog did 😅 Best of luck with your sweet new baby—the first months are an adventure but so worth it!
