Hi,

I am also in a similar situation...being on prozac, along with

imiprimine for 15 years, during that time changed from imiprimine to

trazadone about 10 years ago...took a long time to withdraw from

trazadone, and am still doing a very small amt of prozac...very hard

to come off of it! Any input would be great!

Thanks, Sandi
