Side Effects of Prosac

Is the doctor who prescribed the Prozac a psychiatrist? If so, please consult him.

If not please, please refer to a psychiatrist.

It could be that the prozac is not working any longer and he may be in need of something different. The lack of focus was the first symptom I saw with my (also straight AB) daughter showed when she became depressed.  You know the expectation is always that when the stressor is over we should be immediately better and able to carry on like we did before. Unfortunately, there is so much residual after you have been emotionally held out over the edge. I am sure the situation settling down is a huge relief but I am sure that there is still sadness in his heart that his old family is no longer intact. I put my daughter in counseling before she was ever put on antidepressants (for the same reason your son was) and am not sure how long it will take until she no longer needs the meds. but I am pretty sure it will be long after the divorce is behind us. You need time to get over that and it is different for each person. Remember that while we can find another mate, he will not have another father. He will only have the one that is not there with him and he will be reminded of that in so many subtle ways in school every day. Please don't make the same mistake I did and try to do without the meds as it takes a couple of weeks to get into the system. This being high school all of those grades can have a real impact on his future. Remember also to take care of yourself.  Take care and God Bless you.
