Hey all,
Just realized today that what I thought was almost certainly inattentive ADHD and comorbid depression is almost certainly just SCT and depression making a beautiful frankenbaby.
I've been on Auvelity for a bit, and while it makes my mood a lot better and has completely stopped me from abusing substances, I am fogged to the brim.
Has anyone else tried Auvelity with SCT?
Hey all. On day 34 of taking the medication, just about at 5 weeks. I take 1 pill at 7 and 1 pill at 3 each day.
First week I had nights where I would wake up and feel incredible, like I had just gotten the most angelic sleep imaginable. Little bit later, about week 2-3, I started to have nights where my sleep started to get very thin, and I was waking up a ton.
My sleep started to become horrible, and even though the medication was clearly helping with depression, with my sleep being crap, there were some days where it was a net negative. I basically will sleep for 5 hours tops, and then get an hour or 2 of light sedation basically, not really even sleep.
Fast forward to now, I'm approaching week 6, where most side effects, specifically the insomnia, are supposed to be mostly gone. I even stopped caffeine completely, and am still waking up 5 hours in.
Did anybody have insomnia for this long, and if so, did it resolve eventually, or did you have to lower the dosage or take heavier sleeping meds?
