I know I am posting a lot but I need some encouragement

Hi valerie just give it a Lil more time, I was feeling the same way at one time... Yes it take to ppl different for me I felt I was getting worse but I stuck with it and I feel much much better, so good luck to you hope you feel better

I can't comment on the prescription of Prozac, however we have seen with our daughter (who has been on Fluoxetine) that it can take some time for the medication to take effect.  She was on it for at least 8-9 weeks before we saw any real benefit - although now it has been quite a dramatic improvement.  All we could say to her was to keep going.  She was very up and down but is now much happier, calmer and getting back to how she was (although there are still the occasional low moments as you would expect).  All I can suggest is that you keep battling with the knowledge that medicaiton will take time to take full effect. Best wishes

It absolutely normal.  You'll feel up and down like this for a while.  Yes it will stop, and the medication is working.  Just keep on going, through all the ups and bad down times, through everything, and you'll pass through it and out the other side.  Most people have been through the same journey on this type of meds.

Dont give up, it can take a few months even.  Just head down, push forward all the time.  You're doing well.

Valerian I know it's very hard but it passes..and then comes back. Do not increase the medication as it takes a couple of months...but don't base getting better solely on medication. Question the thoughts that take you back. I know it is scary because I have been there. You are in a rollercoaster...it will pass.
