Prozac is an Antidepressant medication , and used long term can become addictive . In fact it got a very bad reputation in America many years back and a lot of doctors stopped using the drug . People became worse off on it, and especially when taken off it they couldn't function at all . so be care-full ! . Long term on any drugs like this is not good , short term to give a person a lift out of their depression is OK , but make sure to be weened off slowly .

It's a cr@p, overhyped antidepressant.
It kills your mind and your sex drive.
Welcome to oblivion.......
Try 5htp instead.....it increases the serotonin levels in the brain naturally.
Also try Omega3 Fish Oils, Ginkyo Biloba and Rhodiola Rosea.......all good for depression.
If you prefer being a mindless zombie, then stick with the Prozac ☺
