Hi Hun as a doctor with depression and BPD who has taken prozac my best advice is Prozac is a complicated medication to take, because it does work for some and does over the short term make people worse because it increase the underlying feeling you have. However it takes upto 14 days to work and you will need to monitor how you feel whilst you take it, because the complex structure of your brain's pathway are affected. Which may lead to loss of sexual sensation, your ability to sleep and hyper behaviour over the short term. But the longer term benefits are worth it. But please don't believe it's a panacea, there may be times when your complex depression problems may return especially if there are dramatic events in your life.

Please take care!
