Yes, I had that experience. I took prozac for a year and it worked great. Then p-doc said I could try stopping. The depression came back, and when I started prozac again, it didn't work. Doubling the dose didn't work either. Ended up adding on wellbutrin. That sort of worked, but not as well as prozac did by itself the first time around. I guess this is not uncommon.
I've been off it for a while now, so I'm actually wondering if it'd work if I tried it again as I think some people cycle through different meds after they poop out.
