i was on prozac for 6+months consistently before i got to a point i probably thought i didnt need them as much anymore as i felt content. The start of the year i started to irregulary to the point where i wasnt taking them for days or weeks on end.

i think in total i had around 2 months worth max over the whole 6 months.

i crashed HARD. thinking about it now he anxieity and depression was creeping its way back in slowly but surly and i didnt pay attention.

I restarted my 60MG prozac as i had some left a few days before i went to the GP during a massive panic/depression attack. its been 6 weeks now and can say i am a little better . just got to wait it out. The question is when i restarted prozac myself before seeing the Gp i was taking 60Mg straight away. as i had done this he said to stick with the 60?

just having bad thoughts me starting again at 60Mg might make it not work..? thanks

    I think what happened to you was more likely withdrawl symptoms that can appear to be your anxiety and depression coming back..... but its more likely withdrawl symptoms from not weaning off the drug properly, ( i have heard some people have to do it a MG at a time) but I am no expert, ive just read a ton about this happening to people.
