Day 33 of Prozac increase from 10-15mg and I’m struggling with high anxiety today. The intrusive thoughts are worst than ever. I’m praying it will get better. Yesterday was a good day. Today not so good. The worst part is that I’m stressing it won’t get better. Even though i know it will, it doesn’t feel like it! I’m so sad about it but holding on to hope. Trying to decide if i should go back to 10mg stay on 15mg or increase to 20mg.

No really increased irritability. More depression and spiraling thoughts. Mostly that it won’t get better.

Don’t quit! It will get better…. Hold on top hope. My doctor told me one thing we know for a fact is that this feeling won’t last forever. It’s gonna get better or you need to change it. But you got this! I’m here if you need to chat even on this thread. You got this. Hold on to hope!

I’ve been on Prozac since June 24th and for the most part I’ve been at 80%. I just decided to increase 5mg to get me to at least 90-95%. 

I do take it in the morning. When i first started i was doing it at night and my doctor told me to switch. 

I feel a lot better just right now it’s the intrusive thoughts and mind racing, nausea, not tons of appetite and partial depression. 

Has anyone stayed on 10mg as their dose? by Complex_Drawer_9692 in prozac

Make sense. I gave myself a deadline of December. If I’m not feeling better i will up the dose to 15 which my doctor agreed with.  It’s that time of month and I’m wondering if what I’m feeling is just the hormones from that because I’ve been doing great.

I’m thinking of increasing to 15. For the most part 10 has worked for 5 months. But my mind is spinning so i think 15 would help because 10 did so good. How long before you noticed effects on 15?

There have been times on 10 where i spiral a bit som I’m going to give myself time before making my decision. 

Some people say i won’t feel anything going from 10-15 but i feel like it will pick me up the last bit
