> That's an insanely high dosage of Prozac. Your doctor may well know what he's doing, but I'd be very reluctant to take that much. I don't think it could do you any physical harm, but it might increase the sense of unreality that some people experience on SSRIs.

I've had a couple of the best clinicians around state the 100-120 mg dose works great for many. The only thing preventing that high of a dose is side-effects. Benzos during exams may mess up the memory a bit.
