Anxiety and Stress
"I&#039;ve taken Prozac before and it helps with anxiety as long as I don&#039;t drink too much alcohol (which makes anxiety worse afterwards). The problem for me is getting used to the medication so I start on 10mg for a week then slowly increase the dose to 20mg. For a few weeks though I&#039;m more anxious and at times suicidal and depressed so I take Valium while that&#039;s happening. This whole cycle is hard so to take Prozac is not an easy decision for me, but I&#039;m keen to feel &#039;good&#039; again so I&#039;ll stick with it."
