Prozac works well for me and I have bulemia as well. Impulse control is a component of bulemia and probably why Prozac was suggested. I've taken all the other SSRIs and Prozac has the least side effects of all. I actually found some others, particularly Lexapro, made me much more depressed. At a higer dosage Prozac may dull you - for me it was 60mg. My pdoc reduced my dosage to 40mg I found it still worked without the side effects. It also helps a lot with PMS. It does stay in your system for about a week and I think there is even a once a week version of Prozac available. I think it is at least worth a try.
