My recent depression episode made me question what is the point of taking them if I still end up feeling like s***?? But in the long run, I do need them otherwise I wouldn't be able to continue supporting myself. I try not to worry about long term side effects either...I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
Now I don't know about you all, but if I miss a dose, I feel it. I cannot function when I happen to skip a dose. Which is why I'm confused how other people do it. I know my dosage is high (current pdoc does want to change it) so I definitely feel the effects, but still...
