Prozac is not energizing for everyone. For me, Prozac was sedating. After 6 weeks on Prozac, my sleep time had increased from about 7 hours to 10 hours a day and I felt like a zombie when I was awake. So I quit Prozac.
I recall reading a comment by a doctor who said that if Prozac is very sedating rather than stimulating for a patient, it probably is the wrong antidepressant for that patient.
Prozac may have been derived from an antihistamine but it is not an antihistamine. So its sedating properties are not due to antihistamic effects.
