Mid day crash

Hi guys! I just started Prozac two days ago! My doctor told me to start with 10mg for two weeks to help with the side effects and then go up to 20 mg after that. I take it in the morning and I’ve noticed I have a huge crash in the afternoon, like I have to take a nap and I have such a hard time getting up from my nap. I’ve been pretty restless at night too. I used to be able to go straight to bed but I’ve been tossing and turning and taking forever to fall asleep (like over an hour and half of struggling) which then leads me to oversleeping in the morning. I know I need to give my body time to adjust but did anyone else struggle with this in the beginning and it got better? I’m worried about going to 20 if this is how my afternoons are like being in 10mg. I struggled with this on Zoloft too in the past if that helps.
