hello all
i've been taking prozac, or an australian version called lovan for about 3 years, and now i'm stopping.
i know about the problems of discontinuation because i once tried to give up effexor.
but i've decided to go cold turkey.
it's now 12 days since i stopped and i don't yet feel any different?
is it actually possible that i will just go from the medicated state (which i think was already "pooped out") back to feeling ordinary or "normal"?
also, i was thinking of trying st johns wort soon - is that a good idea?
any thoughts much appreciated. thanks.
