You can see my previous post(s) for more info, but I am stopping Prozac due to a bad reaction. Last one I took was Wednesday morning.  Is severe fatigue common upon starting the drug? I keep thinking I’m going to pass out, it is hard to stand and sit up and talk even. And my body is internally numb. Like I can physically feel myself but I feel numb everywhere inside, especially my abdomen.

    I felt the same way for the first 2 weeks back on the Flu.  It can take 2-6 weeks before your side effects go way in some cases.  I had that numbing feeling as well and it drove me nuts...try to sleep and eat well and if possible exercise can begin to help.
