Insomnia and depression
I have noticed after the anti-depressant kicks in my insomnia has been slowly increasing. I feel wide awake for some period and then becoming so tired and thought that I could sleep but then when the light is off and I just slowly back to becoming wide awake again. I usually unable to sleep around mid night, the usual hour that I can fall asleep will moving away from 3 am to later and later. No matter how I tried to tired myself out and go to bed at normal hour, it won't happen. Please help!

Hi Jodi, the first night with medication was great as I really needed that. The second night was a little harder but still quite acceptable I don't need to try to sleep but I still dreaming that I tried to wake up but I can't. It might be the snoring tried to wake me up. 😛

I have been fully awake from the morning and won't have any nap during the day for 3 days now and it gets more difficult each day. The pills are working wonderfully though. My blood pressure is at stage 1 hypertension. I'm not sure what that means but it's not a good place to be surely.
