It might be the Prozac that is giving you those highs - I have been on it several times and it works great to lift my mood except it does tend to cause this manic bit too - and then I crash. Now I am off Prozac and starting Effexor, but it hasn't kicked in.
You said "I feel like I cant deal w anything. Im not feeling suicidal, but i feel like i need to get away from everything-my house, job, husband, responsibilities, etc. i feel like a totally different person. Like i need to just get up and leave everything and start over. it is a scary feeling." - I feel exactly the same.
Don't know about the Effexor yet, but maybe lowering the dose of Prozac will help??
Hanging in there with you -
