I am been treated with 80 mg prozac for depression, it has helped a lot with a increase of well being.
My problem now is a loss of energy, I find it very hard to complete tasks that I need to do. Simple things like cleaning or mowing the lawn.Are their any meds that will fire up my energy level.
FYI I eat very good diet and sleep well.

Hi Bob,
It's interesting that you're feeling less energized on Prozac, it had the opposite effect for me. I was quite energetic on 40 mgs...but that was the highest dose I ever took.
I've heard that a lot of people combine certain SSRIs with Wellbutrin to combat some of the side effects, like lack of energy or sexual side effects. It could be worth looking in to.

Wellbutrin might help.
