How does Prozac help depression, anxiety, OCD and PTSD?
I just took a class on medications for mental illness. I don’t belive that prozac is useful for these illnesses and it does usually cause weight gain. I am not sure if a GP prescribed it or a Psychiatrist, but if it was a GP be very careful. They are not up on these medications and it is best to have it prescribed by a Psychiatrist. Some people have reported that their anxiety got worse with the medication. You should have started seeing some of the effects by 2 weeks. MINISTER: YOU SHOULD NOT SPEAK OF THINGS YOU DO NOT KNOW. I actually have a mental illness. I have been on medication and I have been off medication. I realize now I definately need it. I didn’t take it for 5 years and I was very depressed even through the pregnancies and births of my children. I tried to hide it. I tried to deal with it myself using cognitive behavioural techniques, but I was only fooling myself. Now that I am on Medication I can cook breakfast lunch and dinner(and snacks). I can do the dishes, laundry
