My provider told me to try to continue it and I’m glad I did, as the symptoms totally resolved after that. I’ve now been on it for over a year and it has totally helped my depression and anxiety.
Often times symptoms get worse before they get better with new meds.
Might be worth trying to stick it out for a while. But if the symptoms get too bad let your doc know of course.
Also you might be able to change when you take it to help with the sleep issue.
Sending good thoughts your way 💫
Thank you, this is encouraging that it got better for you. I only took one dose. I just am a little apprehensive based on my past reaction to Lexapro feeling a bit similar in terms of the restlessness and irritability and just getting worse over time. I'll probably try it for a couple more days at least and then call my doctor if it's too much of an issue.
