Depression is something that’s been with me for all of my life. I’ve had ups and downs along the way. And this next step I am about to take is just another part of a very long journey.
On June 1, 2017 I will begin weaning myself off of Fluoxetine (Prozac). I have been using Fluoxetine 20mg/day since 2009. Overall it has helped me deal with extreme ups and downs but recently I am beginning to feel that I would like to live my life without its grasp over me. Life on Fluoxetine feels muted most times and I just don’t really want to feel muted anymore.
With all that said, I’m posting this to say that I’ll be completely away from everything starting June 1, 2017. I will go to work and then I will go home. And I will repeat that until I am ready to re-enter the world. This process is going to be tough so I need to focus on myself and nothing else.
Thanks for being in my life and I’ll see all of you sometime soon.
Best wishes, Justin!
Justin – just catching up with this news – I hope it all goes well.
All the best to you. Take care.
Thank you everyone. It begins tomorrow, but before that I enjoyed about 10 days in the middle of nowhere with my friends and family. Life is good.
