Hi to everyone, Just recently I have started to take Prozac and found it quite helpful. I am no longer filled with Doon & Gloom but feel OK. I know its a bad drug but with all the others We take 1 more aint going to hurt. It helps me and Other's on here so ask your GP if its ok for you to try. I know that this is not the Answer to our problems (as the blisters start to appear from my MTX) but it helps me for the moment. I know that there are Pro's & Con's but in my case its making me feel better.

take what you will from this as we all have different views I am sure this will draw some feedback :?:

    I have been on it now for several months........I was very reluctant to take it, but have no regrets now except that I dithered for so long!

    It's made an unbelieveable change to me; I'm just thankful that I finally accepted help.

    Nothing wrong in taking a drug if you need it!

    If it is helping you that is good news.I took it years ago during a divorce and I lost lots of weight.I chose to stop as I was thin to start with and couldnt afford to lose anymore.Life was tough at the time and I probably needed it but decided I had to stop.

    Hi Handsy I'm on the same disco biscuits and find they work really well, stopped me goning bonkers just in the nick of time, I wish I had been given them a few years ago it would have made things so much better sooner. :wink:
