i'm not sure how these threads work but I have another question about Prozac withdrawal and hope that someone can answer me. I've been taking prozac for 1 year and 7 weeks ago decided to stop. I was taking 20mg so I went down to 10mg for two weeks then 5mg (1/4 of a dissolving tablet) for two weeks then stopped completely. I've now been off it for 2 weeks and I'm feeling dreadful. In the mornings I feel okay but by lunch time I feel extremely dizzy, nauseated, and tired. When I move my head too fast it's like there's some weird kind of lag time. I'm just wondering if these sound like prozac withdrawal symptoms and how long they are likely to continue if they are. I'm considering taking St. John's wart but have been loathe to start on it until I feel better. I guess my other concern is that I'm feeling so lousy I'm scared that I will get depressed and anxious again. Any advice would be much appreciated.
