My psychiatrist wants me to go up to 80 mg prozac, but I've rarely heard of anyone being on this... does that make me extremely crazy? Or "broken"? Has anyone ever been on 80, and if so, what was your experience like?

I'm just afraid because I think its the ceiling dose and if that doesn't work, there's no where else to go...

Hi Maliya. I have heard of people being on 80mg. Also, if the higher dose doesnt work, that doesn't mean you're crazy at all, It just means you need to try different meds until u find the one that fits u. Everyone is different when it comes to meds. I have been on so many I cant even count them. I'm taking a combo of 5 currently. Hang in there, you are not broken u just need help.
