Hi,
I took Prozac for almost 4 years. When I stopped taking it I experienced no withdrawl symptoms and felt fine for several years. (Note: when I tried getting back on Prozac it wasn't nearly as effective as the first time I took it. I've heard this is very common with AD's.)
I agree with Carol that you might want to look in to getting on another med. Although, before you do that you might see if your depressing thoughts don't taper off because it is entirely possible that you are going through withdrawl. But don't wait too long before you talk to your doc because as you probably know, depression is horrible to live with. Good luck.
K.
