Prozac Making Me Anxious

Updated

I started prozac a week ago I also have been taking latuda for about a month and lamictial for over a year. I noticed there's no.way not to that my anxiety is 1,000 x's worse since I started the prozac. I get so anxious for NO reason whatsoever and my heart races. I was wondering if anyone else experienced this and if so how long does it normally last. This is horrible. I was taking it in the am but switched to night and its crazy but it seems to be worse and lasts about 6 hours out of the day.

Hello, Steph! How are you doing?

Yes, Prozac can due that and it usually lasts about 3 weeks, before it eases off and the medication reaches its level of therapeutic efficacy. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, weight loss and headache.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Get off Prozac. Have had lots of family and friends with mental problems and have heard nothing but bad things. Try well butrin if needed but latuda may be enough. You should not be on lamictal and latuda both bipolar meds. Will make you aggessive and anxietal. Everyone is different but I am on latuda and wellbutrin and much less depressed. Was sleeping 12 hours a day for three years. Now up and hopeful and not loosing sleep which we all know is very important.
