This is sure a welcoming group. Thanks for the article ! Glad I'm not alone on this experience ! When I started Zoloft so many years ago, there wasn't an internet to connect with others on ! I had only one teacher friend at work who was on Prozac and she shared her experience.

Hi, I also was a teacher for many years. I struggled with manic depression which made life soooo difficult. I was having 4 panic attacks a day and went to my gp and said I can't manage anymore. He suggested prozac and it helped and I stayed on a low dose for 7 years. It was a life saver. And I am a person who takes vitamins and chooses life style over meds. But sometimes, when life is so demanding, you need a good medicine. After I retired, I slowly weened myself from Prozac and have been off of it for about 15 years. I'm 71 and my manic depression goes into remission and reappears at times. But I'm mostly ok.
