In reply to Prozac and agitation, posted by delna on July 3, 2005, at 7:44:23

Prozac gave me much more energy but the cost was increased anxiety, especially in the mornings. It also caused terrible insomnia. I took it for 8-9 years. The anxiety got somewhat less but the insomnia never, ever lessened. It also caused tightened, clenched neck and shoulder muscles which got worse and worse as long as I was on it. I would have stopped long before I did except that every doctor I talked to told me the neck and shoulder pain could not possibly be from the Prozac.Marsha
