Some questions about taking Fluoxetine

[Notcontent]

I have been taking Fluoxetine for a bit over a month. I seem to be doing well on it and it has been effective in lifting my mood. The main issue for me is that I am not sleeping as deeply and feeling more tired (maybe as a result of nit sleeping as well as normal).

One thing I have noticed is that initially it not only made me feel less depressed but I think also made me feel really calm and chilled out - almost incapable of feeling angry or anxious! However that effect seems to be wearing off... Has anyone else noticed that?

The other thing is that I don’t seem to be able to drink alcohol while on it. I have never been a big drinker but I used to really look forward to having a glass of wine, particularly on weekend evenings. But now even half a glass of wine is enough to make me feel really sleepy and hungover, so it’s just not remotely enjoyable. Is this is a common side effect?

I was on it years ago. My sleep was certainly affected, not deep and I became an early riser, totally unable to lie in despite being tired.

It certainly made me a bit numb. No lows, but no highs either, very detached. I don't remember about the alcohol particularly but it wasn't a great time for me with regards to alcohol so not sure which was the issue to be honest.

I lost a fuck tonne of weight though (a stone in a few weeks, I was on the slim side anyway).
