Prozac is known for having an initial energizing effect, like feeling a bit wired for some people.
You should make sure your doctor knows you are taking two serotonergic drugs, becauase serotonin overdose ("serotonin syndrome") can be very dangerous.

> My Dr switched me to prozac from celexa when I first moved back to CA. At first I felt really well and energized and could control my appetite with ease. The Dr. upped the prozac and at the same time the celexa was washing out of my system I assume. Now I am SOOOOOOOOO tired, all I want to do is eat, sleep and watch TV. The Dr. lowered my dose of prozac but I have been so desperate and depressed at the turn of things, that I started taking celexa with the prozac, thinking that that was the comination which was helping me feel so good. But I am still tired and lethargic and discouraged because I have changed my medication so much I don't know which combination is doing what. I just want to go back to feeling normal, happy and energetic.
