Week 2 symptoms
Hey - looking for a little support/encouragement! I’m on day 14 of taking 20mg of Prozac. The first 7 days I felt amazing; my marriage was the best it had ever been; I could work; I wanted to exercise; I was confident; I felt great (if not a little manic/high).
Since then I’ve developed some pretty bad anxiety; I was sleeping <4hrs a night (been taking sleeping pills the last 2 nights); I feel foggy, erratic, and out of my body, kinda like I’ve drunk a lot of bad coffee; my patience is super short and I don’t feel like I can be present with my kids.
I think this is mostly inline with the experience that I’ve read in this subreddit, but just wanted to see if anyone experienced similar, and ask when it got better! I’m also in AA and wondered if anyone had any positive experiences to share combining prozac with the 12 steps?
