I know they are contra-indicated but has anybody ever tried them together?
I was taking SJW for about 2 months prior to starting Prozac 20mg. It definitely made me calmer, but did not lift the depression. I stopped taking SJW two days before starting Prozac. Wouldn't there have still been some SJW in my system?
I am in the 5th week of Prozac now, and it seems that anxiety is now coming into play. I have an eye twitch, I bite my mouth/lips a lot, and last night I hyperventilated (panic attack?) during an argument with my husband. I just wonder that now the SJW has worn off and the Prozac alone has kicked in, that it may be causing these anxiety symptoms.
I'd like to try adding SJW to the Prozac, to see if it helps the anxiety. If i do, what can i expect? I don't want to take benzos for anxiety. I take them for insomnia sometimes now.
Any comments?
