I was on Prozac for 7 years and just stopped cold turkey! I now think it was a BIG mistake to do it that way. I was fine for 2 months until 3 days ago all these weird thing are happening to me. I feel Like I have something really wrong with me and Im scared to death!! Im so tired and feel out of it half the time. I feel like Im floating and Im getting these weird sensations in my head and that scares the hell out of me. PLEASE if you have had any of these things please contact me
Thanks Kari36

Start taking Prozac again and see if it goes away. If it is truly withdrawls, starting Prozac again will quickly remedy it.
Then you can taper off gradually.
Prozac gives me withdrawls in only 2 - 3 days of not taking it, even though the long half life is supposed to make it self tapering.
