Prozac and insomnia…any ideas?
Insomnia i’m facing:
I take 40mg prozac per day for bulemia and it works great, my only side effect is that it worsens my already present insomnia. The lack of sleep is really starting to get to me but I don’t want to stop taking prozac b/c it’s the only thing that has worked for me. I have melatonin tablets but the difference is barely noticable. What can I do to get some more sleep?

Even if you cannot go to sleep, close you eyes and rest. Closing your eyes automatically eases your brain as it generates alpha waves from the back of your brain. Eventually you will get drowsy–but you must close your eyes and not open them even if you cannot go to sleep.
