Prozac threw me into a bad anorexia condition. My anxiety had turned into depression & suicidal attempts.....so my pdoc at the time kept trying every drug available (1995 time frame) & my reactions to everything were bad side effects.....so he tried Prozac "the miracle drug". I didn't bother really keeping track of my weight, but I kept loosing & loosing & not feeling like eating.....when I finally checked my weight, I was 20 pounds below what was considered anorexic. He threw me into an eating disorders hospital.....where I learned about anorexia.....duh....I didn't have body image problems, but was suicidal....not a good combination with anorexia.....he then changed me over to Wellbutrin & it had the same weight loss effect. I reached the bottom of my low weight loss (if I had lost anymore I would have been really invisible). That whole period of my life is like a black hole & something I don't really want to remember.....just the highlights are enough for me to know that it wasn't a med that worked for me with any positive results.
