In reply to Quit Celexa after 5wks-day 3 on Prozak -Questions-, posted by Brenda on January 10, 1999, at 0:16:41
Hi Brenda. I was always told to try meds for 4-6 weeks before determining whether it was helpful or not. The weight gain could be from the Prozac but could also be a coincidental thing with the depression being the culprit. (I always gain weight when depressed because I don't move as much and I eat a lot of junk foods.) I don't think anybody knows why meds work or don't work. Everyone's chemistry is so different - what is a miracle drug for one person is of no help to another. Unfortunately it's a lot of trial and error. Good luck!
