Hey, I'm in my seventh month of having Post Concussion Syndrome and I was recently diagnosed with depression as well from all the stress and stuff, It's great.

Anyways I'm on Topomax, Nortriptyline, Prozac, and Naproxen for insomnia headaches, mood swings, depression and the likes. The Prozac is my newest medication of about a month ago, i dunno, I got it around the same time-ish as the nortriptyline and I used to be on amitriptyline before with the topomax but I slept way to much and was way to drowsy to function for school or anything so i tapered off of that but the headaches came back so now I'm on the Prozac and N-triptyline because apparently I can't sleep and am depressed from not being able to think straight/failing at school/not having a normal life/I feel like my future is pretty much hooped.

By the way, I right NOVELS, so prepare yourself for the thickening of the plot... when I was on the topomax, maybe even before I don't remember (my memory is shot), I would have visual hallucinations like growing and shrinking things (Alice in Wonderland Effect), seeing colours, swirling, objects moving, shapes shifting, just fun stuff. I also had ringing in my ears, I think tinnitus?, and I would hear rushing and wooshing noises and random times my hearing would go in and out and It kind of sounded like I'd hear voices outside of my head, like actual voices (talking), when no one was actually talking. that may have never actually happened I don't know I'm pretty confused.

But now, that I'm on the Prozac the hallucinations have changed, atleast the auditory, i think...? I have problems concentrating so I zone out alot and when I'm trying to think to hard I start to zone out and than I'll kind of start seeing colours and swirly things and feel kind of "disconnected" i dunno, it happens other times too like when there are to many conversations going on, or if a room is to bright/big/has too much stuff or colours in it etc. and when this happens or sometimes just randomly out of the blue I'll "hear" these voices, but I don't "hear" them really, I think them

I feel like I'm losing my mind, and the only reason i have for not just thinkng that I'm thinking these thoughts to myself Is that I have 3 distinct voices, with names, that have conversations with me and each other (except for the one that just mutters insults and won't acknowledge me or the other voices when "we" try to "talk" to her) the other two are male voices, the one has a distinct british accent and uses british terms that I don't know such as: "Bloody Nora", "Chuffed to Bits" , "Pish" and so on. I've even tried to look up some of the British slang as best as I can, but after my little "episodes" I'm usually very dazed and confused and don't generally remember the "conversation" and within 10 minutes I've forgotten most of what was said unless it was unusually hilarious or disturbing.
none of them outright tell me to "kill myself" or "hurt" anyone really.

*Suzy* just mutters to herself she rarely pops up, but all she does is insult me or the other voices sometimes. calling me fat(also indirectly saying I should eat something else since I'm "huge", which I'm actually not that big, just kind of chubbers from a few too many cookies), calling me stupid,ugly, useless, crazy/insane, a b***h, a waste, retarded, (pretty much just variations of these types of insults). than when the other voices try to defend me (weird eh? they're nice?) she turns on them in her mumbly way and won't directly talk to them either but she calls *Parker* an Idiot frequently, and I forget what she calls *gary* but I'm pretty sure it's not nice either.

*Parker* is kind of a spastic, child-like boy/teen(?) that likes to demand or "dare" me to do stupid things that could be harmful but not necessarily deadly or exactly dangerous exactly. like somethings would be like "put your fingers in the toaster" "eat the burnt toast, I dare you" "lick the steak knife" "make the water hotter" when i'm in the shower or washing my hands, "Your gonna miss your chance... You should eat it... it tastes like ice cream.. it's cold like the bucket... it's delightful... don't miss your chance"(talking about melting snow in the ditch) or he'll tell me weird rhymes " dimes and nickels, time your pickles, maybe than suzy won't hate us" I dunno, Like sometimes he converses with Gary when he interferes and he'll tell suzy that she's being mean when she says things but he doesn't really converse with me, he just kind of persistently tries to push me to do the "dare" like it's a fun joke between friends, in a nice way, but it's never just a "normal conversation".

*Gary* is the British man in my head and he seems to be the only one that can have an "intelligent conversation" (wow that was really weird to type out). Gary is rather polite, and speaks kind of formally and clear. It almost seems like he is annoyed with the other voices for "bugging" me, Suzy for insulting me and Parker for nagging me/telling me to do things and interrupting me when I'm trying to concentrate. he's polite and interested in me, kind of intrusive,but he generally just talks to me about nice things. but when he speaks to the "other voices" he uses angrier terms and is less polite, getting angrier and more annoyed which is somewhat unnerving because it might just be a little while until he starts yelling at me y'know?

So yes. I am rather confused and freaked out about this whole experience. I'm trying to do research but I can't really find anything that helps me for this specific situation and i have problems reading and comprehending stuff so I'm hoping people here can answer a few of my questions or shed some light on the situation. I'm not sure if this is the exact forum to put it on but I'm hoping the right information will find its way here.

the thing is my prozac isn't even really helping me i think. like I breakdown and cry everyday. I cry when I wake up, in the shower, when I get home from school (I try to suppress it all at school as best I can--all healthy like) and pretty much cry snifflyish continuously until I take my nightly dose of pills than I Breakdown again and cry myself to sleep. still having mood swings and feeling very suicidal so I'm thinking I might get my doctor to take me off of it at my next appointment in about 2 weeks.

If anyone is experiencing ANYTHING like this I'd love to hear about it and how you're coping, your opinion on what's happening, what's actually going down. Like does anyone know why the prozac would be doing this? I'm kind of thinking I have a few theories on these "voices/Hallucinations/Manifestations(?)" But I'm also crazy and haven't been thinking right since last summer so I'd like some of your opinions on this whole thing and It'd be just wonderful if anyone has any say on this or if these drugs have had these affects on anyone before at all.

Also what *Gary* says actually makes sense, like the terms to the context, atleast what I can remember. And I absolutely suck at a British accent haha male or female, even in my head. so I don't know how this could work out.

Sorry for the rambling and I've forgotten most of my questions but i'll have to get back to you all. Thanks for any and all replies!

Nortriptyline and Prozac should not be taken together.

Prozac takes about a month to get going, and that is when side effects appear.

I suggest you see your doctor ASAP about the aberrant thinking and mood changes. Some people who are bipolar cannot tolerate SSRI drugs. Sometimes undiagnosed patients are revealed as bipolar when an SSRI is given, for depression.
