Should i get back on my antidepressants?

I am a 19 year old female. In 2010 i was diagnosed with depression. My doctor had me on Prozac 40 mg a day. In June of 2012 i stopped taking because i moved out of state and didn't know where my nearest pharmacy was, and i thought i was starting life over so i could do without the prescription. I was doing okay. But lately I've been Moody. I'll be angry all the time, or things that shouldn't upset will put me in tears. I'm physically exhausted but can't sleep. I have a little appetite and I'm on my feet 8 hours a day yet im gaining weight. And i really don't want to be alone. When my boyfriend leaves for school i feel like a toddler. I want to throw a fit. I don't of course but i get all anxious, and sad, and nearly cry. I have migraines which haven't bothered me the past year. But I've had them pretty frequently for the past 3 months. I feel like my depression is creeping up on me, but i just don't like the thought of going back on antidepressants. I don't like my job, that's the only stress i have. Any medical input would be appreciated.

Recommended Answer:

The best advice I can give you is to try and get back on the Prozac if that helped you in the past. Find a doctor where you live now or call your old doctor and explain your situation and maybe he/she can write you a prescription for a months worth until you find a new doctor. It does sound like your depression is coming back. It is not a weakness, don't worry, it is caused by a chemical imbalance (not your fault).
