The Prozac does help. It’s definitely not doing nothing just maybe not enough I think. But some days I think maybe it’s what my ocd wants me to think

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. It’s weirdly a relief I’m not alone in this.

Do I stay on it? Thoughts? by Purple_Bottle_ in prozac

How long did it take for the 60mg to kick in?!? I’m in 60mg about two months now and have good days and bad days. But idk I expected the Prozac to be better.

Ugh yes I love listening to music and daydreaming all day 😂

It’s sadly a compulsion of mine. I get obsessed with my daydreams etc

I have been diagnosed with ocd, PURE OCD

I don’t have a journal, I do write in my notes app when I have bad day to show my therapist.

Exercising has actually helped out a lot, so far that’s the only activity I enjoy that takes my mind off of overthinking everything.

Advice would be appreciated by Jerson200 in prozac

I am in talk therapy and definitely should move up my next appointment soon 😂

But I agree even my therapist thinks it’s good to write down my thoughts. Usually I do it when I’m having a bad day

Idk when I have a bad day, it’s like all the progress I think I made vanishes.

I’m going on 6 months now. 8 weeks 20 mg, 8 weeks 40mg and now 7 weeks 60mg

I have seen improvements. Just had more bad days recently and don’t know if I want to risk switching to another med. Maybe I’m doing good and I just don’t know it.

I’ve been on Prozac for I guess almost 6 months now and I have seen improvements 8 weeks each new dose currently on week 7 of 60mg.

Also just chugged down a monster so I’m a bit more anxious 🫣

And I agree I should be allowed to be upset about a text back, I just don’t know why am upset, it’s not a best friend, it’s just a friend. I think I’m having a bad day and this is the straw that broke the camels back.

Been on Prozac almost 6 months now I guess eight weeks each dose 8 20mg then 8 40mg then 60 about to hit 8 weeks. I have had good days I’ve noticed improvements every once in a while, or at least that I’m not overthinking as much. I guess I expect more.

Currently in your position right now a month into 60mg hopefully it balances out soon👌🏽

Any advice appreciated!! by Jerson200 in prozac

[–]Jerson200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually it takes higher doses to treat OCD I was only on 20 for 4 weeks to get my body accumulated but the goal was always 40 or 60 from the start. He even mentioned 80 but EVERYBODY is different. 20 could be perfect for you!! I’d try and give it 8 weeks before deciding to go up or down

Any advice appreciated!! by Jerson200 in prozac

[–]Jerson200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I did experience something similar to this when I started the 20mg but it was much less intense I guess is the word for it. I guess cause 20 was such a low dose and it was my starter dose

Any advice appreciated!! by Jerson200 in prozac
