If you have water or anything infused with electrolytes, chug like your life depends on it. Please be safe out there!!

Happy Allergy Season to those who celebrate.

IF YOU TAKE PROZAC/FLUOXETINE, DO NOT TAKE MUCINEX DM‼️ Mixing these 2 medications can create TOO MUCH serotonin in your blood and this can cause complications.

YOU ALSO SHOULD NOT TAKE MUCINEX DM IF YOU HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

If you’re in either of these 2 categories, normal Mucinex is okay.

Stay safe!

hello my fellow freaks and weirdos (positive) (full of love) is anyone here on Prozac willing to share their experience with me (especially if you're also on any ADHD meds too) (specifically concerta) I'm starting 10mg soon and want to be as prepared as humanely possible for what I might experience

EDIT: hi!!! thank you to those who shared their experiences! I've already been on and am now permanently off prozac due to it affecting me horrifically 👍

I don't know how to turn replies off so I just turned notifs off - please don't reply to this anymore thanks

by the way re: my previous post, i feel like a few of you might want to know that there's a thing in pharmacology called a medicine's half-life (which varies depending on the med), during which a quarter of the dose you took is still in your body and working.

everyone who takes any medication should be aware of it, but imo people who take antidepressants should especially know what this shit is because it can very easily make or break the deal.

example: i was prescribed 50mg of sertraline. the amount in my body on the first day i took it was 50mg, but on the second day it was 50mg + ¼ of the 50mg from the previous day, because Zoloft (and any other sertraline med) has a half-life of 24 hours. That ¼ did me in. I lowered the dose to 25mg daily, now i'm fine.

the takeaway is: look up the half-life of your meds and have the dose adjusted accordingly if the stacking of dose + half-life makes you feel bad!! meds are supposed to make you feel more functional, so if you feel worse, it means you're taking too much! talk to your doctor!!

I've been tapering off Prozac for the past few months (originally from 60mg then down to 40mg, now currently on 20mg). I've been pretty happy with the results thus far~

I reached the point where they weren't doing anything good for my brain anymore at that high of a dosage (like completely decimating my libido). I've worked a lot on myself and have successfully adjusted to living on my own/far away from my previous toxic and abusive environment for a little over five years now.

Feels good, man.

when I first started meds I looked it up here to see if anyone had tagged their experiences with it because I was nervous. Unsurprisingly, there was mainly just negative side effects so I wanted to make a post myself in case anyone else is looking

I started fluoxetine and it has been such a good experience. Obs some people will have other effects but for me, it's been great

Spent the whole night researching about neurotransmitters. I feel like I know more now that what my psychiatrist cared to explain me during a whole year.
