Medication worries

I have an appointment with my doctor on Monday, and I'm trying to decide whether or not I want to ask him to increase my medication or try to go off of it altogether. I'm currently taking 30 mg of Prozac daily. I've been going to therapy since I'm home from college for Christmas break, but I don't think I'm going to be able to continue going since I'm going back to college next week. I just can't decide what to do.

The question should be hun is how do you feel?

I guess that my problem is that I don't really know how I feel anymore. I feel like my emotions are all mixed up, and that a lot of time, they aren't even present. The Prozac does help me function more normally, I think. I just really have no idea what to tell the doctor.

I would start by telling him exactly what you just told me! *smile

That's a good idea. If that doesn't work, I'll talk to my therapist about it on the 5th. He knows my doctor and can call him and recommend that he write me another prescription if my doctor doesn't.
