7th Prozac Update - Feeling Good

August 21, 2026··
taper update
Feeling good. Been having bouts of fatigue, flu-like symptoms, and anxiety. Another day in a row of lower baseline discontinuation symptoms. Still present but noticeably less intense than they were. The switch from duloxetine to fluoxetine seems to be working for me.
