Fluoxetine and Other SSRIs - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Who here uses only SSRIs to manage their anxiety. I have been on 10 milligrams of Prozac daily and it works wonders for me. I have Gabapentin for anxiety attacks but those have been pretty non existent for several months. I also completely eliminated alcohol.

Is anyone on Prozac alone for their anxiety. How do you like it. It works great for me so far.

Getting rid of the alcohol was a major piece in eliminating the anxiety.

Thanks Thami! How long have you been on 20mg per day? Also, were you trying to manage your anxiety with alcohol. I tried to do that, didn't realize that was a major reason why I drank until I got on the Prozac. Drinking eventually made my anxiety much, much worse!

Have a nice day!
