love hate relationship with fluoxetine

Prozac, it's good in a way but...


Right now I'm off of it for maybe 6 months. but spent about 10 years on it. It's helpful I suppose. But it also makes me a little hypomanic at times. Which creates other problems.

Well if you can live fine without the Prozac for 6 months then I think it did what it was suppose to do; get you out of a depression and on with your life. Although, usually Doctor's urge patients to get off them after only 6 months of use and see if they can get on with their lives. Why would you want to get back on medication if you didn't need it?

Have you ever tried a mood stabilizer with it? That would sound logical to me.
