Prozac destroyed my sleep

My sleep has been horrible since taking Prozac two years ago and it almost killed me. I feel horrible in my sleep, can't fall asleep, haven't felt rested after sleep in decades. Took sleep study last week but didn't think I have apnea. My breathing is ok in my sleep. My dreams have been very strange since taking Prozac, but if I don't dream my sleep is still horrible. Also feel horrible after naps last 20 years.

  1. BTW, I stopped Prozac year and half ago and not taking any meds now. I've taken every psych drug last 40 years and tons of shock treatment with no relief. Mental health system is a HUGE scam and I proved it! I asked a Johns Hopkins Dr how much she knew about mood disorders and she said "Not much". So all these Drs I've seen last 40 years have been lying to me!
