My prozac dose has been increased to 100mg for OCD, by my Psychiatrist. The reason Prozac has been increased is because it was not showing any improvement with OCD. I was having over sleeping issue, due to Prozac interacting with Trazodone. Trazodone helps you sleep better.My prozac dose has been increased to 100mg for OCD, by my Psychiatrist.

Question about OCD, anxiety, GAD and Depression

I was diagnosed with OCD when I was around 5, been in Prozac my whole life off and on. I would like to start to supplement with something natural along with my Prozac that in turn may be able to have me stop Prozac.I was diagnosed with OCD when I was around 5, been in Prozac my whole life off and on.

Bruxism and SSRIS

The last time I was on Prozac I was grinding my teeth in my sleep. Which isn’t necessarily abnormal for me. However, this time around I’m finding myself grinding my teeth during the day a lot as well. I’m just wondering if this is common among Prozac users or SSRIs in general? Thanks in advance!The last time I was on Prozac I was grinding my teeth in my sleep. Which isn’t necessarily abnormal for me.

Prozac???

Now my doctor is pushing Prozac. Anyone ever fail treatment with SSRIs and then find one that worked for them? So far I’ve tried Wellbutrin, Lexapro, Paxil, and Buspar. I think that’s it.Now my doctor is pushing Prozac. Anyone ever fail treatment with SSRIs and then find one that worked for them? So far I’ve tried Wellbutrin, Lexapro, Paxil, and Buspar.

A little about me.

I went back on 20mg of Prozac and vistaril. Except this time the vistaril was useless and the breakthrough anxiety of the Prozac was almost more intense than the panic I had been feeling.I went back on 20mg of Prozac and vistaril.

No Appetite, Couch is My Best Friend

I went from Paxil to Prozac and the Prozac is not working, and my Psychiatrist wants to switch me back to Paxil and add something to it to help “boost” it. Anyone switch antidepressants and it not work and actually make you feel worse?I went from Paxil to Prozac and the Prozac is not working, and my Psychiatrist wants to switch me back to Paxil and add something to it to help “boost” it.

Medication Changes

Currently, I am still taking Prozac, since it is named as "pure serotonin" for the brain. A lack of serotonin in the brain causes OCD. I would like to know if anyone else has this issue with Prozac and low energy ? I just wanted to share my experience with the medications.Currently, I am still taking Prozac, since it is named as "pure serotonin" for the brain. A lack of serotonin in the brain causes OCD.

Prozac

I started taking Prozac and it’s really helped with decreasing ruminations and the feeling of being on edge. But the thoughts are still there. It’s just easier for me not to pay them much attention. Anyone else on Prozac wanna share their experience?I started taking Prozac and it’s really helped with decreasing ruminations and the feeling of being on edge. But the thoughts are still there.

Lexapro or Prozac - what works better for arrhythmia?

I am now taking Bisoprolol, and the Psychiatrist suggested trying Prozac as its better in regards to the weight gain. I started Prozac 10 days ago, and I am trying to get past the first few weeks with full blown side-effects (dizziness, insomnia, anxiety).I am now taking Bisoprolol, and the Psychiatrist suggested trying Prozac as its better in regards to the weight gain.
