Im just wondering about something. I take 20 mg prozac a day. Anyway i ran out of meds and didnt take any lasy week, maybe one day I had a pill. But i got really low and anxious and a bit dangerous. I got my pills again and started taking them on Friday and by Saturday i felt better and today im feeling fine again. So could it be that I stopped taking them and went under? Can that happen in such a short space of time? Added to that I had my period which makes me prone to lunacy anyway. Would stopping the pills for a week make such a difference or am i talking rubbish?

nooo absolutely that could happen.
atg, I get severe symptoms within a day or less of missing a pill. I can even feel slight withdrawl from my effexor within a few hours of missing one. Because your body gets so used to working with the chemical when you take it away, you come right back to baseline, plus you get withdrawl kickback too (not like it is addictive, but just that your system gets used to it) |

Yikes.  You know the meds drill--you remind ME of it all the time. |
