Prozac

[Dead]

Anyone ever try?

guess this thread is irrelevant they effect people differently.

I tried lexapro made me depressed tried Zoloft made me calm and confident felt like low dose mdma

just tried Prozac and I feel very good. Feels like my old self from 10 plus years ago. Not synthetic feeling at all and it’s a bit stimulating like I have motivation to actually eat my Meals and get up in the morning and go to work without hating everything.
This is pretty great I hope it lasts this has been the most normal I’ve felt for a long time.

almost feels like when you wake up in the morning and pack the car to go on vacation and you’re a bit excited and all that. That’s how I can describe it.

I think I actually need something like this because my brain just doesn’t really produce enough neurotransmitters to wanna function day to day without feeling overwhelmed and apathetic

My wife was on it for a few years due to post partum depression (that's where it started and she stuck with it for about 3.5 years.

My wife is a highly emotional person (not that she's erratic, but she experiences a wide range of emotions on any given day), but when she was on prozac, she was very even keeled, almost stoic all of the time. It also KILLED her libido, and I have a very high sex drive, so you could probably imagine the issues this caused.

She has been off for about 5-6 months now and she's back to her old self where she actually enjoys things and she gets upset semi easily too. But I always tell her I prefer that version of her over the robot version. Her libido has increased a little, but not much.

Thats the worst they killed my libido too. So i stopped taking them. Also my family said i was “different” and they didnt like it. So we shall see. Libido is back though, thank goodness.

I wonder if anyone has experience with Paxil. My brother and mother are on them for anxiety and they say it's great
