Hi everyone,
I don't have much else to express, other than continued hopelessness and fear over my situation. After withdrawing from Prozac some 8 months ago, I have become completely numb and emotionless, physically numb. I feel separated from my soul. There is no point in being alive. Life feels the same at all times. I have early morning waking, as well.
Everything tells me these are symptoms from having touched that drug, and not just depression. I would give anything to have my normal depression back, and try to treat it through therapy.
From what I've gathered on the boards and reading other folks' posts, it looks like I'm pretty much screwed-- conundrum, mike lynch, crabwalk...I don't see anyone saying this resolves with time, or can heal. It absolutely FEELS permanent. I was miserable when I was depressed, but I was never as convinced that I was totally screwed as I am now. I was human in depression, albeit a miserable one. Now, a total robot.
Has anyone had any success, or know of anyone who has recovered or gotten better from this?
