Prozac (fluoxetine) "I had been on this drug for many years and didn't know that it was making me worse until I stopped taking it. It needs to be monitored more closely as it can be a very powerful drug with horrific side effects such as violence and Mania. I was initially on 60mg and the dose was tapered down to 10mg and then ceased. I had 25 admissions to the mental health hospital. USE WITH CAUTION!"

"When I first took the pill 1-2 hours after it. I just knew it would change the world for me. I'm on 3th day now, concentration/focus and recovery of it is a new level for me, its almost feels unreal because I can do so much stuff now that was for me impossible before. Energy of doing more things before bed is the way I feel. Oh now I do what I was so jealous about of others before. Now I do this stuff and thats more then amazing for me. Voices what I can call them make it a lot easier being in the reality of others. They aren't as sad and longing for something else anymore. I obviously don't suffer as much as before. I know I have a lot to take care about. But know it is possible. So good this website exist. It was when looked here and all with my diagnosis schitzoaffective disorder did 10 of 10 rating I just had to as my doctor for it. And she gave me a prescription. Can just say thanks god I did that. Because my life will never be same."

Prozac (fluoxetine) "The best thing ever to be invented. The very first time I took my first dose, literally 30 minutes later I went from being catatonic/incoherent/and hysterical to sudden new feeling I had never felt before in my life. Happiness, calm and serenity. My imaginary pain disappeared as well. Suddenly everything made sense. I was all like, omg god, is this what normal people feel? I couldn't believe I had been missing out on this emotion for the first 24 years of my life. It gave me my life back. Been happy, successful, productive ever since."
