I applaud your intentions, believe me, I had them myself. Just some friendly advice, be ready for emotional chaos. Just in case. I stopped taking Prozac last semester and ended up snapping at my family constantly, for everything. It may be a good thing to prepare your kids and hubby for any possible mood swings. The reason I stopped is because I still felt like a bitch every month (PMS) and I thought it was pointless to take Prozac when it didn’t help. After 2 months off of it, I realized that while I still may have PMS, emotionally it really helped the rest of the time. I didn’t fixate on emotional pain and was better able to cope. Also, when I went back on it, I felt it seemed more effective then it had in years. Perhaps because I gave my body a break from a steady stream of drugs. Who knows? I am not trying to discourage you, really. I understand why you want to stop. I wish to God I didn’t need them. For me it is definitely a genetic fuck-up that messes with my brain chemicals. Every person is different. I pray that this will be a good thing for you, and you can cut pharmaceuticals out of your system. Here’s wishing you much love and success! BTW, please don’t post this comment. It’s meant just for you to read.
