    I have been on ad's for 13 years.Started on prozac several years ago because of cost. I've tried getting off of it several times only to return because of depression coming back. The only thing that bothers me is i experience blackouts if i drink more than 3 drinks at a time. when off of it for 6 months, this didn't happen at all.

    Prozac didn't do a thing for me. The drug helps others, so it probably just didn't mesh well with my body chemistry. After trying different dosages for over 2 years, the doctor finally switched me to another drug.

    I find it is help for my depression, but I still have times where I can "make" myself depressed, usually when I'm tired. Can prozac make you very tired? Can it make you naucious?
