Recently went to the doctor and they put me on Prozac. I'm taking it for GAD, does anyone have any sort of advice or experience with it. Or what I can expect from it?
I've taken it for about a year. It has given me pretty bad IBS and makes me feel empty inside, but that's somewhat better than constantly wanting to drive my car into oncoming traffic.

Did the effects wear off after a few months?
Eh somewhat. I've noticed more down periods now but I don't know whether that's true or just my perception,

So it's short-term treatment then...
it sucks a fat one. you always shit in the morning, feel numb rather than sad, and have the sex drive of a wet rag
i just stopped taking it cold turkey since im fairly certain im not going to kill myself anyway
best of luck op im still trying to find the miracle drug
As I said, I'm not sure. These antidepressants fuck with your perceptions of reality and I am on so many other medicines to be even remotely functional, so, I don't know whether I am truly feeling worse or not.
It did cut my sex drive in half, at least, which is really nice. So that's something at least.

Fuck I already have bad enough IBS.

Well thanks, I hope it works out for me. I'm just so tired of feeling this way that numbness and no sex drive is a welcome sacrifice.
