The hunger feeling should pass. But you do not have to take a med that makes you feel bad. The meds are supposed to make life tolerable. Med adjustments can take forever so please tell them about your drug use. They may be able to put you on a different drug based on your drug history that is more effective. Certain drugs can alter the way the brain works forever and then these people need different drugs to treat common problems. Just a thought, but it may make your life better by sharing so you can get the right help.
