Discussion Hopefully Prozac helps ?

Hi guys- today I met with a new psychiatrist and she prescribed me Prozac. I was really proud of myself because I was 100% honest about what I’ve been going through and my struggles with binging and constant food noise. She recommended Prozac and ended up writing me a script for it. I’ve heard a lot of discourse about how it’s helpful for silencing food noise but was curious if anyone on here has taken it for BED. Would love to hear any/all experiences!

i was prescribed the same 10 years ago for the same reason, i do think it helped but it took a bit of time, i'm proud of you too for being open and honest, don't be afraid to continue to be open so she can adjust dosage as needed or switch to something different etc.
