" I started taking it about 4 months ago. It is not my first SSRI. I took Zoloft for many years and then Paxil for a couple of years.

The first month I didn't notice anything from the Prozac. But at about 5 weeks I noticed a big decrease in my social phobia. It has also elevated my mood and stimulated my mind. I feel smarter. I am more social. I am laughing again.

I am worried about the sexual side effects. Paxil killed my libido, and I worry that Prozac may do the same. "
