I started prozac 8 months ago. I had to do a cross taper from celexa to prozac. It was a very long, drawn out process because my body can't handle side effects very well. 100 days ago I was upped to my final dose of 40. I still feel like half of my old self. Are my expectations too high? My psychiatrist thinks it's time to try something else. btw I suffer from panic disorder.

    i do think all our expectations are too high. I found when I realised that I calmed down. we will still have crap days but I definitely cope with them better since prozac. I don't get so overwhelmed by it all. also I kinda work it hour by hour. I do hope you feel some peace soon
