Fluoxetine suddenly causing me to blackout when drinking. Anyone else?

I've been taking fluoxetine for a while and I've noticed a really concerning change with alcohol.

Before starting fluoxetine, I never had problems with blacking out. I could drink and I'd obviously get drunk, but I wouldn't completely lose periods of my memory.

Now, the last 3 times I've drank I've ended up completely blacking out. I'm not talking about being fuzzy on a few details - I lose significant periods of time and have ended up in random places without remembering how I got there. I've also apparently done/s said things that I have absolutely no memory of.

It's gotten to the point where my girlfriend is completely over it, and honestly I don't blame her. I don't want to be this person when I drink.

I'm currently on 20mg fluoxetine. Has anyone else experienced a dramatically lower tolerance / blackouts / completely different behaviour when drinking after starting fluoxetine?

I'm not looking for people telling me "don't drink on Prozac" - I already know, and I'm probably going to stop drinking altogether. I'm mainly interested in whether anyone else had this specific experience and whether it changed after stopping/reducing alcohol or changing medication.

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's experienced something similar.

Avoid Pept.au – Products never arrived

Based on my experience, I would not recommend ordering from Pept.au.

I paid for express postage and was told one of my items would be shipped separately because it was out of stock. That item never arrived.

I then placed another order, which has also gone quiet.

I've contacted them multiple times through live chat and email over the past couple of weeks and have received no response whatsoever. I even sent a final email before lodging a Visa chargeback, and they still haven't replied.

At this point, I can't recommend using them. If you're considering ordering, I'd be very cautious. Has anyone else had similar issues recently?
