In reply to Prozac/Luvox reaction, posted by gritslad on January 9, 2011, at 18:19:59
> My new psychiatrist weaned me off 40 mgs. of Prozac and added Luvox to my coctail. I also take Lamictal.
> She switched me because I was having focusing problems, and she felt it would help me with my head picking and anxiety issues.
> I felt ok sometimes even good a couple of days since 12/29 when I weaned from Prozac and went completely on Luvox.
> Then I woke up this morning feeling suicidal and was crying hysterically. I almost never cried with Prozac.
> Called doc who thinks it was discontinuation syndrome. Gave me 10 mgs. of Prozac. Did not take me off the Luvox.
> I am feeling very distrustful of the Luvox.
> Anyone experience anything like this, and what is the cure?So you were feeling fine emotionally on prozac, but only having problems focusing?
