Day 3 of new dose and was so ill with it, instead of pushing through I've taken today off the meds and plan to see if I feel like me again before next tritation appt on Weds.

The meds helped but at the cost of me feeling flat all the time, I think it was building towards a depressive state and needed to stop, plus felt my body was fighting the meds.

Will ask to try something else I think. I feel sad at giving up on this medication 😞 but it really didn't feel right for me.

Hope to feel myself again very soon.

Just venting into Reddit.

Today's been tough, being unmedicated for first time in 3 weeks or so.

It's infuriating. Am in day 8 of these meds and last two days have had this side effect. In 6 days time my dose is meant to go up from 30mg to 50. Really not sure if I should persevere, not feeling the benefits are good enough yet to balance out this new side effect.

Earlier I found it was not noticeable when I was distracted cooking dinner but it's really making me uncomfortable. Not found any answers online.

To mention the obvious... I take it with protein, I exercise well (have done so for years), sleep has been better than ever and I am well hydrated 😭
