prozac only does half the job, if you aren't seeing a therapist, you aren't going to get better. Find a therapist and deal with your issues.

wait it out, ull be alright. i did the same thing with effexor multiple times and eventually decided to wean off of it completely. its a tempting thing to overdose wen ur feeling really shitty. i think that in the future i wud try to resist it and be patient. take the normal dosage and then take a shower or nap or something. wen i used to forget a dose i wud be in a situation in which i was feeling pretty freaked out and i wud want results fast. im not really sur whether taking more actually gets quicker results. even if ur really busy and impatient to be functionable again, i think that its ultimately going to work better if u take the right dosage and let it do its thing at the rate that it needs to. maybe take it and then supplement with simple other things that might boost u like caffeine or something with high sugar content. dont freak out that uve overdosed this one time. alot of ppl panick and will do stuff like that. next time this happens, just remember that it really wasnt that much more helpful to ur mood. hope ur a little bit improved since the time that u posted this question. :)

Moods are interesting things.
Then we apply drugs to them and expect that we will feel better.
How many problems were solved after taking all those pills?
This question is not to be rude. It is serious.
But moods start within yourself.
You see the world through your eyes and measure it through your mind.
Start by thinking in terms of thinking. Just as you need to do physical exercise to stay in shape, so you need to do mental exercises to stay mentally in shape.
There are a number of exercises available. You just have to do them.
Write down all the good things about yourself.
Write down and be grateful for all the things you have.
Look for the positive things in your life. And, for every negative have at least one positive.
Life is not all negative.

It sounds as if the Prozac is not working as well as it could.
Tell your doctor you can feel yourself going down again.
You don't have family to talk to so it would be a good idea to talk to a therapist. I hope you feel better soon.
