Is it normal to be so up and down?
For backrond context, i switched to lexapro after zoloft made me feel too good and high which was followed by a crash that skyrocketed my suicidal thoughts to 10/10. My psychiatrist prescribed me this and said that if aftwr a week absolutely nothing gets better i should go from 10 mg to 20 mg. The first week i felt no change i was miserable but at least the side effects were very mild and tolerable. After i upped my dose for few days i felt so much relief, i felt joy and excitement from the little things, i felt hopeful about my future and had increased positive thoughts about myself and the world. I felt good but not high like on zoloft but then the annoying crash came back again and i feel heavy, hopeless, tired and unmotivated again. Is this normal? Will i get back to feeling like life is wortg living again?
