D/R,
Prozac 20 mg was the first AD I ever tried and it was extremely activating for me, even making me social, and I have social phobia. Unfortunately it wore me out and made me a little nutty (I think hypomanic) and I had to stop it, but I always wish I could get a little of that back. I always assumed it had some dopaminergic effect and that's why it was activating, but it's 5HT2c antagonism? Do you have any studies you can refer me to? What other meds have this property other than Geodon and Prozac?

Thanks,
oceancat

> Probably like prozac, 5ht-2c antagonism. it can be activating. higher doses it starts to hit some other receptors too. (note: it has high affinity for 2a at very low dose but thats probably irrelevant)
