I had not have the precaution to bring a prescription with me. While i was there i was ok without medication that is why the pdoc made the decision to leave me without prozac). After some time my treatment ended. Now, I need to go back to treatment again, but i am very reluctant and have many doubts and questions.
In your opinion/case, how important is medication for your well-being? I mean, do you think you could be better only with therapy (without meds)?
Please, do not feel obliged to answer
If your depression is caused by a chemical imbalance,IE dysthymia. etc. you need the Prozac, otherwise you can get along w/o it. My doc told me this.
