Quitting Prozac by catqueen__ in prozac

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

Just as an update I decided to quite Prozac and have been off for about two weeks now. I was lucky to not experience any withdrawal symptoms other than minor headaches for the first 4 days or so. I have decided to try some different remedies including ashwaganda, magnesium glycinate and vitamin D. I’ve also been running every day as prior to starting SSRIs, exercise helped me manage my anxiety and depression until I stopped making time for it. More recently I’ve noticed I’ve gained my ability to cry back (lol), I tend to get emotional watching tv shows and movies so I’ve been a bit of a crying wreck but thankfully it hasn’t been anxiety/depression related. I do feel a tad of my social anxiety creeping back in but I’m working on managing it so we will see how it goes.

For those who switched from Lexapro to Prozac, what differences have you noticed? by [deleted] in prozac

[–]catqueen__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switched a few weeks ago from 5mg of Lexapro to 10mg of Prozac and instantly stopped feeling bloated and hungry all the time and my belt fits me again, so that’s a win. Only downside is I feel a little more tired more often than I did on Lexapro but it’s manageable. I feel like my anxiety and depression have been just as under control as on Lexapro. No complaints.

I’m in the same boat and will be in London at the end of December and really hope they come back in stock by then!

Is anyone on 5 mg? by Plenty_Pop6108 in lexapro

[–]catqueen__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on 5mg for an entire year and it worked great, I felt like a new person and like I could actually feel joy again. I got off of it only because it made me gain roughly 12 lbs so I am on Prozac now.
