New on, 10mg daily of Prozac.

[Guest guest]

Goodmorning!

My first time on this site....glad I found it. I am 72yr.old: Survived a heart-attack 14yr.ago (no problems since), prostate cancer survivor (non-detectable PSA for the past 9yrs.) While the radiation and radiated-seeds probably dampen'd my libido a bit, I still experience it.

I've been on 10-mg.of Prozac for the past two weeks and already I am totally Zombie'd out, talking slow, feel like I'm walking on a cloud and sudden find myself totally "Zero Libido". Wow, that was fast. I had told my GP (a fairly young fellow) that my wife and I have been in a non-sexual marriage for about ten years now and it was finally driving me up the wall....I felt myself stressed and probably depressed.

He Rx'd the Prozac to help me "take the edge off my stress and depression". Sure as hell did....LOL. My wife is now very happy because I've stopped making "Overtours" and touching....she has no idea I'm on Prozac. This is not good or natural feeling. I am thinking about quiting the 10mg a day therapy before the sexual side-effects get worse or to an "Un-reversible" state.

I suspect that at this early stage of therapy there should not be too many "withdrawal" factors to worry about. Am I correct?
