> You could ask your doctor if she would be willing to prescribe a small amount of Prozac. You don't have to take it immediately, but you could keep it on standby. If you notice any signs of your depression returning, you can start taking it. If you continue to do well, you might decide not to take it at all.

Well, at this point, my reasoning for taking Prozac is to keep any possible post-SRRI rebound depression at bay. Do you think I'm being overly cautious?FWIW, I don't seem to be suffering from any major W/D symptoms, mentally I feel fine, physically... I'm a bit tired, my sleep is somewhat bit restless, and I have some nausea, but that's about it. I'd slowly weaned myself down to 5mg of escitalopram during the past few weeks before quitting, though.
