Hi everyone,

i have been on fluoxetine now for about 3 months and on the whole i feel great 100% better than the first 4 weeks now that the side effects have gone! 

but just occassionally i have the odd day where i feel disconnected and a bit spaced out and i was wondering if anyone else felt the same...

    I was on them for 20 years I used to feel like that and I used to sleep a lot but they worked

    I had a breakdown last year and having been trying all sorts citriapram was the best no zombie like I'm trying Prozac again and can't stand this feeling drowsiness and loss of energy.

    but stick with them because they work only downside you can feel like a zombie I was on them for a long time and my body got used to them.and I was younger I'm diabetic so and older and I can't cope with the transition. But yea you do get days like that but they do help but they do block everything out and you don't care about anything don't know if that's good.a word of working don't drink with them it had divesting effects on my life .sorry if it's to much but I hope haunt put you off good luck with it all .
