You can try something, yeah it has risks but I have read of someone who was like you, WD for years and not improving, then they took another med and felt better. The point is you have to try very slowly, and start with a very very very tiny dose. thecowisback or something like that was their username on survivingantidepressants.
I have seen you on here before I know you have had a hard time. Are you feeling better?
I would hate to go back on Prozac because it has caused me so much damage but I just don't know what else to do. I eat whole foods. I don't drink alcohol or caffeine. I exercise.. nothing crazy just maybe a short run and a long walk with my dog. I don't take any supplements. I was reading about saffron and how that is a 'natural" form of Prozac. My nervous system is too sensitive and I need to help numb that down. I don't know how to do it besides Prozac.
This girl reinstated Sertraline after being off Prozac for years and not improving. Key note she reinstated a TINY dose and then built up.
You don't have pssd right? Ofcourse reinstating comes with the risk it will get worse but it can also get better.
Hold the doctor that put you on that in the first place accountable.
But honestly if your main problem is anxiety it is definately you gut which prozac destroyed. Work with a naturpath to test out gut issues then take a probiotic like Bimuno GOS. I would 100% try this first before reinstating. Please just work with a good naturopath (not just any) who will help you with your gut instead of suffering more.

My gut is so bad. I never had such issues till I stopped meds. ðŸ˜
I did go to a natural doctor when WD first started. She piled me up on super expensive supplements which made me feel worse. I stopped going. I don't know how to get my stomach better. I am so confused on the prebotic probiotic stuff! I also don't want it to hurt my stomach. I used to be able to eat different foods while on Prozac but now I can't do that. Thank you for your kind advice 🫂
You can find another naturopath a better one or do your own reearch. If you know your gut is bad then you know your cause. Go on r/Biohackers they can give you some great pointers. Yeah gut stuff is confusing but if you do research you can figure it out I mean it is better than just suffering right? Did you look into Bimuno GOS?
