prozac day 16, nothing has happened

hi im on day 16 prozac 10mg, I still don't see an improvement, im worried this drug is not going to work for me.

Ok... first off 10mg is such a small dose it will barely do anything... next off nobody sees an improvement after 16 days... it took me 7 weeks before I seen anything and then an increase and 8 months or so to really feel great. It is slow acting but if you can be patient then I found it was worth the wait.

After 7 weeks did it kick in?

sometimes it takes a few antidepressants to find one that works. i was always under the impression that an antidepressant would make me all happy and bubbly but it really only makes me just. numb really. 

It kicked in a bit but I needed an increase from 20mg to 40mg then.

how long have you been on it for? 

18 months this time around.

It takes 20mg per day for 6-8 weeks to have an effect
