Thanks to everyone for your help. I'm leary of the Effexor because I went through an awful time several years ago (pre-prozac) when I was on Xanax and Clonapine in high doses, and was told to just stop taking it when I had a bad reaction. Hoooo, boy - don't want to go through that again. Everything I'm reading about the Effexor says that it's REALLY hard to get off of, so if it doesn't work, I'll have a double wammy. My doc knows how I feel, and says we can try to supplement the Prozac with Omega 3, or perhaps a thyroid med, if I want to try that first. Just torn about what to do. Thought I was set for the rest of my life since the prozac worked so well - literally set me free - so even more depressed about that.
Anyway, glad I found you all - and thanks again for your advice.
