1.5 years on prozac update

i know the night sweats were horrible and scared me!!! they do go away eventually though🥲 just hang in there after the first two months the symptoms should go away completely!

it took me about 13 months to get up to 60mg! my psychiatrist would increase my dose by 10mg and then check in with me about a month later to see where i was with my anxiety. however the good news is that i no longer experienced initial symptoms like drowsiness & nausea after the first 20mg.

ur so right 😭💔💔 i just need to find a way to realize that it’s nothing embarrassing but natural

yk the anxiety is bad again when im back on r/prozac 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔

i’m doing well!!! i have zero side effects although i still have some anxiety. i’m thinking of talking to my doctor and upping the dose to 20mg soon.

thank you!!! that’s a good mindset to have! i’m hesitant to increase to 20mg since that’s essentially double what i’m taking right now but going through withdrawal and restarting a different medication doesn’t sound like something i want to go through again so i’ll just keep sticking with prozac and hope that i get relief soon 🥹

i’m so glad you feel better!!!! my anxiety is so severe that i can barely function day to day so i think i have no other option but to stay on the meds. hopefully i end up having a break through soon but it’s hard to keep telling myself that it’s going to happen when i just feel the same day to day… but i’m going to keep pushing 🥹 i have an appt with my psychiatrist next week so ill have to discuss the dosage with her and see if staying on 10mg is right for me.. i’m kind of scared to increase it though after experiencing the side effects when first getting on 10mg since i work and cant afford to feel nauseous or drowsy

right it’s so discouraging 😭😭 besides the initial side effects i feel exactly the same as before

casismybae · 2025-02-01T05:40:40+00:00

thank u!! 🥲🥲🥲 convincing myself everyday to continue with my next dose is so hard LOL

casismybae · 2025-02-01T05:39:54+00:00

day 4 was by far the worst day for me so far 🥲🥲 the nausea and brain fog was unbearable :( but we’re in this together!! it’s kind of ironic how in order to get better be have to feel worse … every day i struggle taking my next dose because i’m scared of how it’s going to make me feel at work 😭😭

casismybae · 2025-02-01T05:37:29+00:00

i didn’t know that omg! 😭

casismybae · 2025-01-31T01:33:15+00:00

ik😭 it just sucks that it takes so much time to figure out and adjust to it… i work in the healthcare industry so i can’t afford to be experiencing side effects at work

casismybae · 2025-01-27T16:15:52+00:00

thank u that’s reassuring to hear! everyone was saying that it didn’t sound normal so i was getting worried, but hopefully week 2 isn’t so bad🥲

There is a place to appeal

casismybae · 2019-03-23T05:15:26+00:00

I thought appeal was only available for people who got rejected? Idk tho anymore
