New and have a question
| Thu, 01-15-2004 - 3:24pm |
I am new to this board and was hoping some of you could answer a question or two. I have been on and off Prozac a few times and decided a few months ago that I would fix my "problem" on my own. Needless to say, it didn't work how I'd like. I know I need to be back on the medication but I wondered if any of you are on something other than Prozac that doesn't have as many side effects. Thanks for any advice on this. I appreciate it!

Hello and welcome...
I take nuerontin which is a mood stabilizers and it has worked pretty well for me really no side effects at all.
I know some of the ladies here take lexapro and there is no side effects to that eather nio side effects or a very slight risk of side effects.
I know someone who is on prozac and likes it but each of us react differently to the meds.
I think it is great that you see that you do need the help and are reaching out for it.
I had to try quite a few different meds before I found one that worked for me. I suggest you talk with your doctor to find the best one for you.
Also, each med effects each person differently unfortunately. Although they can somewhat tell you what the side effects are, they still differ from person to person.
Take care sweetie.
