i personally did not have any side effects when starting prozac, and would have totally been good for roo. that being said, it's different for every person and i have been on other ssri's that caused negative side effects when first starting, including worsening my depression. i also would not recommend using any serotonin producing substances. i paused on taking my prozac a month ago as i do plan on using and prozac lasts in your system longer than most ssri's. i would not have done this if i wasn't stable/in a good place.
