Insomnia
"I was put on this medication as an alternative to ativan (OTC, melatonin, and Valerian root failed). I didn&#039;t realize initially that it was an antidepressant since my doctor said it was a sleeping pill. I&#039;m also on Lexapro and Welbutrin and I&#039;m very sensitive to antidepressants. I was started at 50 mg, which did nothing. 100 mg next for about a week which left me feeling awful in the mornings. She then increased it to 200mg and it was an awful experience. I took it at 8pm and fell asleep around 2am. I woke up at 7am for work feeling awful. I sat through two meetings feeling dazed, dizzy, nauseated and out of it. All that evening and the next day I had flu-like symptoms and couldn&#039;t stand without feeling like I would faint. Overall, horrible"
