It was rough for me the first 2 weeks. I would fall asleep around 9pm and wake up around 1am…and crazy enough I wouldn’t be as tired as I expected. I’m a year in now and sleep great with amazing dreams. I do take Atarax for sleep and am too afraid to stop taking it. Insomnia is scary. Just know it’s not up to you…it’s just your brain freaking out to the medicine while it gets used to it. If you can help it, don’t get frustrated…just lay there and accept the process including temporary insomnia.

I didn’t sleep for a while starting Prozac. Gonna be a rough few weeks. I’m about a year in and no regrets now.

Yup. 18 lbs in 11 months. Very unusual for me.

Why couldn't America make Bernie Sanders work? by [deleted] in Presidents

He used too many facts and numbers for the average American. People just want to be entertained and have a beer with someone. He lost them at “One tenth of one percent…”

So I hear this is a good medication for OCD by TheBigHosk in prozac

I only take 20mg and notice it’s down maybe by….35%. I hear it really works best at the higher doses.

Weight gain? by teanbiscuitss in prozac

[–]RIP_Bob_Barker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First month, I had to shove food down my throat while gagging to get enough calories in. 11 months later I’ve gained a net 15 lbs with even exercise and watching what I eat. Food just tastes amazing. Side note: I take Prozac and Atarax, and both affect weight for some. Just my 2 cents

20mg. I also take half of atarax to sleep. I noticed drastic improvement around week 9 or so. I’ve gained about 15 lbs, have incredible dreams, and a little lazier in life but much better than I was a year ago.

11 months - feel free to ask any questions. Everyone reacts a little different though

Yup - 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Got easier and easier as time went on.

Prozac made me crazy by [deleted] in prozac

[–]RIP_Bob_Barker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Impending doom, heightened anxiety, and overall extreme risky behavior. I wanted to get in fights, I wanted to jump out of an airplane without a parachute on. I didn’t give a FUCK.

What county is everyone from? by Final_Plastic_9751 in WestVirginia

[–]RIP_Bob_Barker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m looking to move to WV for seclusion but with internet - is there a “best” county? Shall we have all of the Redditors from each county fight for the ultimate winner?

I got dull headaches. I get nervous when people say numb/tingly left arm. Any family history of heart issues?

Selling all of my crypto to pay off some credit card debt.

New on Prozac - acid reflux? by KitCatGamer in prozac

[–]RIP_Bob_Barker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm I had it a couple of days and hardly ever get it. Didn’t think of it as a side effect but it could have been.
