A member asked:
I am having feelings of worthlessness and depression. i question if prozac is the right drug for me now. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depression: Prozac MAY be helpful, or another medication your doc prescribes, Please see a mental health pro such as a clinical psychologist to get to the root of the situation. Cognitive behavioral therapy is one useful treatment but the therapist may have others. America is a "give me a pill" culture but working at the real issue is often more effective. Peace and good health.
