Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: F Age: 18 Time Taken: 6 months Reason: Depression Date: 19 June 2007 Side Effects Slight weight loss Additional Thoughts I was on Prozac for 6 months when I was only 17 and it worked wonders for me. I did not have high hopes for the medication to work, but it gradually did. I really didn't suffer any bad side effects either, just weight loss which was fine by me. I was able to slowly come off of it with my doctor's approval and had no bad effects of the withdrawal either. It might not work for everyone, but it was exactly what I needed.
