A member asked:
How do you discriminate between happiness and hypomania during prozac (fluoxetine) withdrawal? my mood and energy have been much better since tapering down my dose
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Is it adaptive ?: the discrimination is that you still have nl sleep, a normal rate of speech and that you do not appear "high" to others. Overscheduling yourself, daredevil driving, and overly generous gift giving would be early warning signs
