Hi @natthebrat97, I can understand the reluctance to take medicine if the side effects seem worse than the problem the medicine is meant to help. It can be a vicious cycle with not sleeping and depression. I think fellow members like @stlr21 @jakedduck1 @sears @eczarniecki @jimhd @hopalongnm3 and @atscaping may have some thoughts for you.

Natt, have you talked to your doctor about the side effects and how they make you uncomfortable? There may be other options for you.
