Hun, those are two things you want to have a prescription for!
Everyone's depression is different, and thus needs different treatment. Sometimes Prozac and Xanax do wonders, but other times they can actually make the depression worse, especially in teenagers and young adults. Sometimes taking anti-depression medications can cause people to become suicidal!
Thus why there are prescriptions in the first place. Only someone trained for years and years on depression and mood disorders can really help you choose the medication best for you. Taking things like that without a prescription can be really dangerous, and should NOT be attempted.
If it's the cost of prescriptions you're worried about, talk with your health care professional- there are usually generic brands that are the same medicine, just cheaper.
If your doctor/psychiatrist doesn't think anti-depressants are right for you, then they most likely aren't. You can always seek a second opinion, or try alternative cures such as therapy.

Oh you can get these online - you will pay high fees for it - because unscrupulous doctors will write a prescription for it without ever seeing you - and you get to pay for the doctor visit. Your insurance won't pay because you didn't get this medication through regular channels.
Further, the medications may come from developing countries and there is uncertainty about the consistency of the drug as well as the expiration dates.
If that isn't enough reason for you - here's one more - Xanax and Prozac have serious side effects and without the consultation of your doctor can have negative consequences on you physically. I would never recommend taking these types of medications without full knowledge and consent of your doctor.

are you crazy? if you cant get the stuff leagly then i would guess you dont have the money or insurance for a doctors appointment. How the heck do you expect to pay for illegally acquireing them. if you can go to a doctor tell him the problems your having,etc. then you will be able to get the medications you need. Not what you want.
