> Sweet! Good for you! I've notice the same thing to which is why I have restarted prozac. I don't think I could handle that high a dose though.
> Just curious, How long were you on 40mgs before you increased the dose? How long have you been on it all together?I actually have a bit of a weird combo. I was on 40 mg Celexa, 40 mg Prozac and 0.75 mg Risperdal for years. Then my motivation went away. I convinced pdoc that the SSRI's were giving me apathy so she started decreasing my Celexa, first to 35 mg then to 20 mg.
I seemed to be just getting worse with the decreases.
Then pdoc increased my Prozac to 60 mg and it has been almost 2 weeks now. At first she was just going to increase my Celexa back to 40 mg, but then I said then I'll just be back at my starting point. Then she decided increasing the Prozac instead was worth a try because it is stimulating.
I had been sleeping about 15 hours a day previously so I needed stimulation.
