YES! Everone I know (that took it) gained weight on Prozac. I was on it for PMS for a yr and gained at least 30 lbs (I stopped weighing a few months ago). I was in great physical condition when I started it, but became so tired w/fatigue AND insomnia, that exercise was the last thing I felt like doing. I was on 20mg/day and quit cold turkey. I was wondering how long it takes for it to get out of your system. It sounds like St Johns Wort has help others. I have been off it for ~6 weeks. I have a tremendous amt of stress in my life now-but I struggle w/depression now-whereas I never really had a problem w/it before. I'm sure this huge gut isn't helping...and all the wt settled in my gut.
