prozac takes the edge off. And it takes about a month or so to get in your system and you to see, rather feel, the benefits.

Depending on what is causing the "depression" it will affect you differently than someone else. Take me for example. I was not depressed, rather I felt the need to strangle everyone I came in contact with. They put me on prozac and it took the edge off - evened me out is how I like to phrase it.

It takes time unfortunately. And if you feel you the need for immediate results while you wait for the prozac to get in your system, I would suggest talking to your doctor about a temporary something that works immediately, is non habit forming, and can help until the prozac kicks in.

Feel free to PM me if you have questions you do not want to post publicly. I can help with my personal experiences perhaps.
