Default Breakthrough Depression/Anxiety.

I seem to be having a bit more depression lately and am wondering if I should up my Prozac doseage or change to a new AD? Don't ever want to be in the dark abyss again and feel like I'm slipping.

I hate being dependant on any drug.. Never had depression or heavy duty anxiety, before MS and really resent not being able to pull myself out of it, on my own. I tried and that did not work. So far, SSRIs have been my friend and literally saved my life, but each med I have been on has lost it's effectiveness a few years after starting.

I'm getting back to feeling worthless, lonely, unwanted, unneeded and fat..LOL. When my med is working, non of this carp bothers me, which is just fine with me. Some people don't like it, but they are young and haven't yet been through all the *life*, that I have.

I enjoy my new *content* and want to crawl right back into my little comfort cave. Have any of you had any experience with Prozac/Fluoxitine(sp)?

The only situation that has changed in my life, is my DD getting a divorce and her shutting me out. I miss our Mother/daughter talks, but she doesn't want to talk to me about it. Why? Either to save me the pain or to keep me (the contro freak), from taking over and running the show. She doesn't realize that I am no longer a control freak and am in the "I don't give a **** part of my life.

Lay it on me, what should I do??
