Fuoxetine 30mg for depression

Slowish taper to 20. Mild w.d

Then from 20-10mg hit problems,

Switched to paxil, lexapro, sertraline, citalopram had adverse reactions to them all.

 

Reinstated prozac at 10mg. Felt better.

Manufactor switch, more w.d.

Couldn't stabilize after switch, is it w.d or side effects?

Messed with dose daily changing from 10/5/8mg up head going crazy chaos.

Now I'm stuck what dose to take?

Because I don't know if the medication is just making things worse now.

Hi Littlemess, Welcome to SA. I am sorry you didn't get any replies to this topic.

I moved it here to introductions and updates where it will get more views and input.  Thank you for 

doing a signature, it is very helpful but we need a bit more information if you don't mind. 

 

When did you start prozac, when did you reduce in dose/ updose etc.  It is terrible that you

are suffering so badly but hopefully we may be able to help you find a way to feel better. 

One thing that is certain is that switching doses only leads to more symptoms as the nervous

system is not stable. 

**I am not a medical professional, if in doubt please consult a doctor with withdrawal knowledge.

 

 

Different drugs occasionally (mostly benzos) 1976 - 1981 (no problem)

1993 - 2002 in and out of hospital. every type of drug + ECT. Staring with seroxat

2002  effexor. 

Tapered  March 2012 to March 2013, ending with 5 beads.

Withdrawal April 2013 . Reinstated 5 beads reduced to 4 beads May 2013

Restarted taper  Nov 2013  

OFF EFFEXOR Feb 2015    :D 

Tapered atenolol and omeprazole Dec 2013 - May 2014

 

Tapering tramadol, Feb 2015 100mg , March 2015 50mg  

 July 2017 30mg.  May 15 2018 25mg

Taking fish oil, magnesium, B12, folic acid, bilberry eyebright for eye pressure. 

 

My story http://survivingantidepressants.org/index.php?/topic/4199-hello-mammap-checking-in/page-33

 

Lesson learned, slow down taper at lower doses. Taper no more than 10% of CURRENT dose if possible

Welcome, littlemess.

 

How long have you been taking Prozac this time around?
