I've been taking 150 SR for 24 days for the past 3 weeks I felt really good now I feel like I'm reverting back to. My old miserable unmotivated self and I hate it. I knew this was gonna happen but was just hoping it wouldn't. anyways should I up my dosage to 300 or just wait the 8 weeks. I can't ask doc cuz I see him april first and I ordered these online reason I did this is cuz I have takin these in the past. Had the. Honeymoon period then doc switched me to prozac don't remember why but whatever feeling pretty down atm thanks

I can't recommend that you self-medicate (though you already have), but I as in a similar position as you are and I found an increase to be quite effective. I was taking 200mg generic and increased to 300mg XL and it definitely helped me to feel less numb or sad and more motivated again. Once again, I don't think it's a good idea for you to be taking an antidepressant w/o a doctor's rx. I'd call your doctor anyway and let him/her know what you're taking, it can't hurt.

Ya reason I did it is cuz I have to wait 2 months to see doctor for script and that is just to long but I will see one eventually. I keep telling. Myself I wanna up dosage because I'm recovering drug addict and I'm trying to get high but I know its not that. I will probley up dose today since I have taken this in the past with no problems I think I was to young to know what was going on says on the bottle to take 300 anyways hopefully it'll help I will not up it to 450 tho before speaking with doctor that much I know.
