Off Prozac

I couldn't take the shakiness anymore and decided to stop taking the prozac. Back to square one and feeling pretty discouraged about it.
I also don't know how to taper off of it, as I usually would, since these are capsules. So I just didn't take it this morning. Hopefully I can stop abrubtly and be ok with this med.

I still feel pretty shaky, trembly, or whatever. I don't know how to describe it exactly. It's almost like internal tremors.
But whatever it is, it's miserable. Feeling like I'm about to crumble and collapse. Can't keep my hands from shaking.

So - what do I do now?
I have company coming into town next week for my brother's wedding and it's always stressful getting my family together (my parents are divorced). So I'm a little nervous about not being on any meds during that time. But the Prozac wasn't helping much anyway - so maybe it will be better to be off of it and hopefully over these side effects by then. I really hope.

shaky

I hate feeling this shaky.
Inside I just feel like I'm trembling all over and about to crumble.
can't hold my hands still
feel like I should be able to shake it off
it's like when I haven't eaten for awhile
or when I'm extremely tired
and just starting to shake all over
low blood sugar
or exhaustion
but I think this is from the medication
and I don't like it
I feel irritable and unwell
it makes me feel just lousy
this feeling shaky

but if I stop the Prozac

then what do I do?

I've tried Paxil, Zoloft, Celexa and now Prozac.

And the side efffects always seem to get to me

hate it
hate it

is there any option that will work?
where I can feel better and not be continually cursing the side effects?

I don't know if I can continue with the Prozac if I keep feeling this wacky.
And I don't want to go back to the Dr. again. The options feel so limited.
ugh

The switch to Prozac

I decided to go ahead and make the switch to Prozac and I haven't noticed much difference from the Celexa. My husband's grandmother passed away last week and we made a short-notice whirlwind crazy road trip to Indiana for the funeral which entailed over 24 hrs. straight of driving there and back. We had other family with us to help with the driving, but we were crammed in a small vehicle and it wasn't very comfortable and we didn't get much sleep the entire 4-day trip.

So, my point is just that I'm not sure if my headache and ringing in my ears is in any way related to the medication or just some overexhaustion and sleep deprivation. Possibly both.

As I was freaking out about leaving my kids for 4 days and packing and driving on such short notice (I don't do well with spontaneous stressful events - which unfortunately is just how funerals happen), I did make a comment to my husband that were it not for the meds, I don't think I would have been able to handle the idea of making the trip AT ALL. So I think it was helping (although I was still a bit of a mess).

Luckily, everything worked out. All the kids - and the babysitters - survived. And, it is a rough transition to be home now. I always feel so out of it when I come home from being out-of-town. And the kids are out of school now and I haven't even had a chance to think about summer yet. So it's weird. I feel like I've been on another planet for much longer than a short trip like that might warrent. Oh well.
Anyway - now I'm on Prozac.
I'll keep you updated.
