prozac morning rescue

Posted by rjlockhart37 on August 3, 2020, at 11:38:10

i woke up this morning, horrible, not depresed but just apathic and feel i've got things to do, not looking forward to it. I took the usal dose prozac 80mg, competly improved mood, feel back to normal good mood state.

i'm staying on prozac, been on it tol ong, know its effects well, i talked with doctor one time about marplan, but we cancelled it out. 80mg of fluoxetine is a bit max dose, but it helps. Not sure what happened if i did come off prozac, start marplan. Has anyone whos taken marplan, when in the beggingin stages of it, did notice any improvement, did you feel less depressed?

i went 2 days without prozac, they say it stay in your system, no if i don't take prozac .... severe depression, i went 1 day without prozac i couldnt believe how much diffrent in a mood, slump. Depressed all day, just begging for a prozac. I started it in 2005, it took 6 weeks to start working, and i noticed we were on vacation to colorado, i woke up and went downstairs to the hotel to get a waffle, and noticed a warm feeling, in my head, mood. It was like a warm, kind hard describe. Later after it was increased to 40, i noticed significant mood improvement, then when moved to 80, im able to get up every and not be depressed at all, things that do make depressed like everyday situations, yes you do get depressed, but as severe as without prozac.

if i was taken off all medications, the only med i would stick with is prozac, can't hardly be in a good mood without it.

yes, it can cause mania, but its ... the only antidepressant that is recommended for bipolar disorder, the depression part. Lady when i was in psych, she was put on lithium and prozac, they use it frequently in bipolar cases, i dont know why but fluoxetine is commonly used in depression phases of bipolar disorder.

I don't why, but its the recommended med, and yes, oh yes it can cause prozac mania, without a mood stablizer, i started lamictal because i was in hypomania phase on prozac, but usally they use lithium with prozac in some bipolar cases. That's reports, things i've watched on tv about mental health.

when they took me off stimulants, and alralam in 2009, that was the trauma phase i had, my parents, the doctors conspired and threw me into psych, like some kinda devil planned all of it. Evil got into them. I would take dexedrine and alpraoam through out the day and was fine, and then i walked into my therapy session, just a fine day ready to talk, my mother was in there, which i thought was strange, and i sat down and was in a good spirits, they said your going to have to take off your meds, and go to rehab, i got up and said f*ck you, then i went my psychiatrist, they planned it, he told me same thing. If i could ever hire a shark go after someone, those doctors would be on this list....all of them

anyways, so now im on manic depressic meds, and you know....its not bad, lamotragine stablizes my mood, prozac helps my mood, but still those evil doctors, get a shark and go after them.

but its not bad, lamicta 400, seroquel 600, zyprexa 10, prozac 80, nuvigil 250, diazepam 12.5

so im just stuck with that until something suddently changes or i make a jump and get on my own. Anyways, thats just what i had write, that terrible time in 2009, it was post tramatic, horrid time, evil got into everyone of them....

anyways, end of blog
