"i can&#039;t say enough about how much this medicine has helped me with depression. i spent years in and out of deep depression. i was finally diagnosed with depression and post traumatic stress disorder and started prozac at 20 mg then went up to 40mg. i knew it was helping but i didn&#039;t fully realize how much until i forgot to take it for about 5 days. then i started to feel the hopeless feeling i get with depression and i haven&#039;t missed a dose since. i&#039;m one of the lucky ones with no negative side effects. my libido is better than ever and i&#039;ve actually lost a few pounds. i sleep great and wake up every morning feeling rested and more positive about life than i ever have before."
