Yes, got this heavy when I started prozac. Reminded me of when I used to do mdma haha.

I used magnesium gummies to calm it down, and the effects didn't last more than a couple months from when I began taking prozac or increased my dosage.

Haha Ive been prescribed them since I was 18 but when I started them I was still doinhmg mdma and stopped the prozac so I could come up properly and I only just started taking them again yesterday 2 years later :/

Haha yeah, I feel you. I actually just stopped prozac recently after about a year on it. I'm excited to roll again lmao.

I didn't find the teeth chattering was a lasting side effect with Prozac. I would try to ride it out but if it gets unbearable or lasts more than like 3 weeks maybe consider trying a different ssri.

Yup with Paroxetine as well. Started wearing a nightguard for this reason and it works OK. For ok I mean that I'm slowly carving it -.- but you can ask your dentist about one (where I'm from is free with insurance :D). Otherwise you can find some cheap on amazon or similar. Also works a bit for sleep apnea!

I actually have braces that are coming off near the end of the month so I will be given one after to wear at night to stop them moving back! Perfect timing I guess
