I have schizophrenia, and a common comorbidity for it is depression. I suffer from that as well. My PDoc put me on 10mg of Lexapro (SSRI). That was too much, I couldn't feel any emotions on it so I went down to 5mg. I do well the entire day until after 5pm. Then the depression gets darker and darker. What can I do to fight this? I take Omega 3 fatty fish oil pills. I also go to therapy every week. I try to write poetry, talk to my family, watch shows to distract me, go to this forum. I don't know what else I can do to combat this. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Why would the Lexapro (SSRI) work all day until after 5pm?

Any help would be great. Thanks in advance everybody.
