Has anyone had any experiences with prozac ? I have been taking 20mg every other day for about 8 weeks, for getting worked up and behaving slightly manic. However it makes me feel sick and spaced out and sometimes whilst driving can just drift off, which is a bit worrying. However my main concern is im quite liking this feeeling of being away from it all sometimes i feel very detached from whats going on around me, i know this cant last for ever and will have to come back to real life and im scared what this will be like. Any advice is greatly appreciated espically if you yourself have had similar symptoms

You shouldn't still be having such severe side-effects after 8 weeks. Usually the side-effects settle down after a few days and you are able to function normally.

I'd say you should go back to the GP as soon as you are able to, and have your medication reviewed. It may be that this particular AD doesn't suit you, and you would be better trying something else.
