A 44-year-old female asked:

Use alternative: Unfortunately Prozac (while an awesome drug) can interact with quite a few medications. Usually the SSRI + Wellbutrin (bupropion) combo is a great and very commonly used therapeutic option for patients suffering with depression and anxiety. There are plenty of efficacious and safer alternatives. Hope that helps!

Dont know: Too many questions which cannot be answered in this format. I'd suggest that you'd be screened for sleep disorders which can impair memory.
