I had the same reaction on prozac now Im taking a med combo of antidepressants.. not of the benzo class.. Still SSRI's but with less residual affects.

Prozac is an SSRI with some SSRI's you cant mix benzos. if I remember right for most if not all people mixing prozac (an SSRI) with a benzodiazepine (Benzo's) product is very dangerous, causes things like heart palpatations, heart attacks, suicide, cancer and other health related and sometime life threatening issues.

suggestion - talk with your treatment provider. theres probably a good reason why they are refusing the benzo class of meds for you based on your physical and mental health records.. and maybe you and your treatment providers can find another medication that is in the SSRI's that will have less problems than the prozac for you.
Thanks for this!
