No more Fluoxetine!

I was on these for nearly 15 years ! Two a day. Prescribed for depression and they are very good for Raynauds. Well I wasn’t happy, I didn’t have much of a social life, no motivation no enthusiasm about anything. They were NOT WORKING anymore. I came off them slowly, took about 5 weeks. That was very hard, all sorts of withdrawals. Anyway by the fifth week it was like I’ve gone back to me ( mentally ) I wanted to do more, I couldn’t But hey I do want to ! BIG difference.
