Re: Prozac, anyone???
Posted by Alicia on 1/31/99
I have been depressed the last few days myself. I have suffered with PF for 8 years, really bad for about 5 months. I'm in the process of trying as many things as are reasonably affordable and not truly strange (and my definition of strange is getting more liberal...) Before trying a heavy-duty drug like Prozac, why not try some counseling or the St. John's Wort. (Let your family MD know you are going to try it, just to be safe.) I have used counseling off and on for specific things in my life (divorce, death of a parent) and find that it helps. Although PF may be a chronic disorder, I am not going to give in to it and I encourage you to find non-drug ways to cope first. If some of these things don't help, go for it. I DO understand how you feel, as many of us on this message board do. Good luck.
