So yesterday/two days ago, i started to feel like people were trying to get me, and animals were sending me secret messages, and there was someone talking to me who wasn’t there about how to fight back against the people after me, and I was really paranoid and scared pretty much the whole day (morning and night anyways). It hasn’t been back since. But this happened on day 5 of me starting Prozac. Is it possible for Prozac to cause psychosis, or that I had a out of the blue psychotic episode? I’m only at 10mg, and am tapering off Effexor XR. I was at 75mg at the time. I know psychosis isn’t a sign of serotonin syndrome and my pdoc told me that I should not get serotonin syndrome from this dose of Prozac. I see her on Monday, so I’ll see what she thinks then. I was just wondering if this happened to anyone else on this drug, or another SSRI/SNRI? Thank you.
