Yeah, I tried to wean myself off of the Prozac lately. I did taper off over a couple of months, and quit over a week ago, but today my eyes are leaking at work, hate that leaking! Makes me so angry so, of course, they leak more!! I fought with my husband all evening and next morning, and couldn't rebound from it. The arguing wasn't brought on by the lack of meds (long story grrr) but the crying jag surely must be.

I have to admit that the advice is sound, give it a year, lose a bit more slowly, keep your wits about you.

BBQman--if you are still having the awful downs even on your meds consider trying something else, but remember you're not really supposed to feel wildly better, first it should take the edge off your depression and then slowly help you to level out. If you're feeling like your highs and lows are 'clipped' or that you are still skimming the bottom look into something else. Life REALLY is worth living, but sometimes we do need a little help.
