In reply to Re: Prozac withdrawal stories please, posted by joy on August 7, 2002, at 6:39:57
I withdrew from Prozac back in 1992, just stopped cold turkey after being on it for 3 yrs, no side affects or withdrawal symptoms. I was fine for 9 mos then the depression hit again and Prozac was reinstated. I had zero benefit from it the second time around and was put on Paxil after a cpl of months. I really wish now that I had never stopped the Prozac, I thought I was "cured" and wouldn't need to continue taking anti-dep. I think stopping the Prozac started my rollar coaster ride with the other anti-depressants through the years since then. I should have left well enough alone.
