I’m switching from lexapro to Prozac. Are they similar or will I still feel numb? Also what are withdrawals like cause rn I’m tapering off the lexapro and I’m angry at everything.

numbness is also common with prozac

I’ve only taken lexapro before (no effect for me at the time) but my sister’s on prozac and has been on and off for years, doesn’t get the numb feeling at all. Just makes her less anxious. Of course everyone is different but try not to assume the worst! (and i’m sorry you’re having bad effects from tapering, that’s really hard)
