Mm, I used to feel like I wanted to commit criminal acts around the time of my periods; now I just feel extremely discouraged. I suppose that's progress of a sort. Personally I think prozac has had a big hand in helping me cope with life in general, but the particulars suck sometimes. For instance, I get anxiety attacks now, which I never used to have. Honestly though I don't know whether that's a byproduct of 'zac, therapy, or splitting from my parents (emotionally) and husband (physically). It's a toss-up I guess. Medications like Prozac I think are probably okay in smaller doses, like 20 mg, but at 60 I know it was too much for my body. I have been eating a lot more lately and gaining weight, but I can definitely say that it's not because of the prozac. If anything, 'zac keeps my appetite and my weight low.
