Actually, the problem started because of the blasted insomnia that Prozac caused me, and I started started using alcohol to get to sleep (my psychiatrist offered to prescribe some sleeping pills, but I was young and naive and had a hangup about sleeping pills--what a dumbass). My alcohol consumption increased, as it seemed like Prozac chopped off the highs for me, and I think the excessive drinking did induce some euphoria to counterbalance that. I think I was on it for perhaps six or eight months and finally went in and told my psychiatrist I didn't want to take it anymore, as I fortunately had enough wisdom to comprehend and accept the destructive course I was on. I never told him about the alcohol problem; he was rather aged, and I'm sure he's passed away by now--this was about ten years ago. I feel bad that I never told him.Todd
