Prozac or just overcoming pain?

[ImLost3]

I started Prozac 4 days ago. Was feeling hopeless and broken. But for some reason today was a total mess at work and I couldn’t help but smile for once in over 2 weeks. And actually not cry yet. I was in a mood this morning but as my day went on as hard as it was I was laughing at the end. And I have to give you guys credit on here your support is amazing thank you all.
