the new prescriber person has decided to prescribe me 20mgs/daily Prozac. ahhh, Prozac...the most (in)famous antidepressant, ever. anyway...

anyone have experiences to share? It turns out...a lot of my "lingering psychosis" is really just really, really, really (no, really) bad anxiety, complete with 'obessive traits' (thankfully, -not- full on OCD...that looks rough), so my mind has been looping on things.

i've only been on it a bit less than a week, and...OK, I think this is a mind thing, as in I'm -doing something- about it, so I feel better...but I do feel a good bit calmer and better able to just carry on, on a day to day basis.

i also take abilify. id kinda like to see about lowering the abilify a tad, since Prozac apparently makes blood levels go up a good bit, but...you know how psychiatrists are...you have to make them think its -their- idea to adjust something.

other than that, its just vitamins and very low dose gabapentin, strictly as needed. i think im doing surprisingly well...

so, again: anyone with Prozac stories to share? Thanks. :-)
