Post Medication for stress & anxiety 
I have been suffering from mental stress and a friend of mine suggested “prozac”. Does anyone have information on prozac for stress relief?

Do you mean mental stress as in depression, or mental stress as in anxiety?  Prozac is an antidepressant, sometimes used to treat anxiety.  You can get more info if you google it or look it up on a reputable site like webmd.com.  But probably, it would be best to discuss your symptoms with your doctor to decide what drug, if any, is likely to work best for you.  I hope your stress eases soon, and that you can enjoy this holiday season.

welcome, do you have sleep apnea?

prozac is a big help to some but must be taken daily and takes 2 to 6 weeks to start working and never works for some
early side effects can be nasty, it helps some with stress relief
