I was wondering the same thing. A few years ago I took 20 mgs of Prozac in the morning, and just stopped after a few months because I still felt crappy. I've been on 40 mgs of Prozac every morning for about a year. My mood is MUCH better, but I notice that sometimes I stare off at something for a few seconds. I am aware of what's going on around me, I just wonder why it happens. I recently lost my favorite uncle and grandfather in less than three weeks from each other. I was also the person who had to tell my mother that her daddy was dead. That bothers me. I still haven't cried yet. I have feelings, and I miss them terribly, but I haven't had the big boo hoo yet, and it's been three months now. I'm starting to think it's the meds, because normally I would've been a basket case. My family hates to tell me bad news because I don't handle it well. I think they are wondering when I'm going to break down, because they're always asking me how I'm feeling.
