Hello Everyone! I have changed from Zoloft 150MG may 1 to Prozac 20MG. My doctor felt I was gaining too much weight on zoloft and it was not providing the anxiety relief that was desired after being on Zoloft for over 13 years. My doctor informed me to increase my dose a month later to 40MG and prescribed me xanex .25mg three times a day as needed. Everything was going well until I started the process of moving across the country May 30th. I did not increase my prozac dose until May 6th. Since I have had increase in morning anxiety, diarrhea and days of feeling completely foggy. I have been staying in my in laws since the 30th until our hours is ready in Florida.
My question is... the Prozac I get morning anxiety.. this I think is from the Prozac? Or the stress of moving. I noticed however, the Prozac gives me so much energy which to me is anxiety provoking because I'm not used to being awake at 7 and in bed at 11. Will this subside? I take .125mg xanex as needed which has been about every other day in the morning. I feel like the medication is working as I feel better, less crying, more willing and wanting to do things, and have a lot of energy. I find if I can't burn off that energy my anxiety increases. I like Prozac so far I think... the side effect has been bad but I did have three days where I experienced way less anxiety I just don't really like this jittery, racey feeling....
