I started on 10mg of Prozac 12 days ago, then started taking 20 mg on the 8th day. The first day I took the 10mg and 20mg it made me feel pretty good for the first few hours after taking it (don't know if anything was really happening, or just a placebo effect).
I've been experiencing slight insomnia and restlessness during the day. Before I took Prozac, I would sleep all night without waking up, and I would take a 1-2 hour nap every day. Now, I have trouble getting to sleep, and I wake up occasionally. I feel like I don't need any sleep, but I feel restless.
Are these side effects that will go away? Right now, I feel like Prozac is doing nothing good for me, but my doctor says it takes 1-2 weeks for me to tell a difference. I thought I was feeling better when I started on 20mg, but now I'm not so sure.
Thanks for any help.
