Prozac?

[jazzibleu]

Urg, I don't know what to do. My therapist wants me to get started on anti-depressants because she thinks we can't make progress until I am feeling more "stable".

But I have always been a real "natural gal" I don't even take asprin.

I've also been doing some research on the Prozac and such and found there are almost no long term clinical trials and the side effects are considerable.

Does anyone have any experience/advice on this? I'm considering giving St Johns Wart. They're using it in Europe almost exclusivly instead of Prozac.

Thanks all in advance!

Hi jazzibleu,

I wish we could help you out, but unfortunately only your therapist & doctor can help you with this. One person's experience is different than another person's, so it's not a fair assessment to compare how a few people reacted to a drug to which you might react totally differently.

I can understand the hesitation to use a med but they really do work wonders & are usually a temporary thing.

Talk to your doctor
