Hello! i was on Prozac from January 2025 til August 2025. Immediately my sleep changed and my sleep scores went from 90’s and continued to decline to about the 60’s. My dr convinced me to keep pushing through and prescribed me a sleep med on top of it. I had many nights I didn’t even sleep for a minute it felt like and truly became a zombie. Tried adjusting time of day I took it and that helped slightly. I finally had enough and tapered off. It’s been about 7 months and my sleep has not returned to normal. I’m 41 and have decades of good sleep (and Apple Watch data to prove that it was excellent every night prior to Prozac!) the insomnia is seriously effecting my life. I am tired every day.
My question is for those who stopped Prozac- did they have lingering side effects like this so far out? Did things ever go back to normal for you?
Thanks for anyone who answers
