Hi, I saw that you are taking Prozac from one of your blogs. I was just diagnosed with depression and prescribed Prozac. I was wanting to ask how it's working for you. Does it help any at all?from coastalmemory
Hmm…to answer the question in short, yes, it helped to some degree.
For me, it took like a month for the Prozac to fully take effect. It gradually works through your system, although the responses are a bit different for everyone. It helped when I was really depressed and I needed an intervention to physically function. It’s a form of a mood stabilizer…I think it made me more calm. After a while though, when you do get better and your doctor says it’s okay to be off on prozac, this is where you really need to try hard to be more optimistic about everything. That’s the only cure.. yourself, and the belief that you can get better. Prozac’s there to help you along the process.
