Real shitty night pardon language

[wynlowe]

Last night my dose of antidepressant was upped from 5 to 10 mg it was my 7 day on them. I could not sleep at all and my body ached so bad like it did before I had mess or even knew I had this disorder. I am scared and I just want to better much like all of you on here. Ugh sorry to vent I just want to be me again.

I'm on my 6th day of Citalopram and i've hardly slept since I started them! Apparently it gets better in time though.

Good to know I am not alone. It just seems so scary you know? Never been this way before. I hope you get better soon.

Hope you feel better soon.

My experience with lexapro was similar, after about 2 weeks i started to feel much better. Its hard to be patient when you feel this way, believe me.

I'm on citalopram (20mg) and I've been soooo tired. Do you think I should start with Wellbutrin? My NP told me it would take away the negative symptoms. I seem to be having the opposite of people here so I just want your opinion!

I never slept well on lexapro or citolpram(lexpro's brother) but do OK on prozac. Alankay

I'm on fluoxetine which takes a couple of weeks to set in but im sleeping better than ever now :) perhaps explain to the dr that the new strength of drugs is making it very difficult to sleep, maybe they can change it?
I tried sleeping pills and everything before I was put on fluoxetine but nothing helped me sleep. Although i found when I stopped thinking about wanting to sleep and started trying to stay awake, it actually helped me sleep. Like reverse psychology on yourself haha. Hope this helps a little x
