Weaning off Serzone was not a problem; I had started Zoloft while weaning down gradually. Just go down gradually and you should be fine. I just wondered, when Prozac 'poops out' I understand people go to 80 mg and even 100 mg; also a little Naltrexone is added to it sometimes to boost it; also Buspar has been added to it. I don't very much about that but others on the Board may. I hope you find that peaceful feeling again.
