Last week I was prescribed Prozac in liquid form for PMDD. I’m to take 0.5ml which is just 2mg for about ten days before my period. Then for a few days during ovulation as that sets me off too.
From the first day I felt better, I have more energy, I’m happy and back to my normal self again but today I feel a bit jittery. Only a bit but slightly anxious at times and I started googling hyper mania Blush but im still able to relax without anxiety or anything and sleep and eat well again which is wonderful right now. I’m on such a tiny dose, as I’m very sensitive to medications and besides, 2mg is apparently good for PMDD. I’m wondering if it builds up in your system though as it has a long half life. Should I just stop worrying and enjoy this feeling? Maybe I had a depression I didn’t realise I had!

Hello I suffer from PMDD and would like to start on this. Did you take for the whole month or just around your period? Did it work?
