Depression
Increased depression after increasing a dose of an SSRI is not a typical response. This may not be the right medication for you. If the depression significantly worsens, I would recommend contacting your prescriber for a sooner appointment. You might also discuss a different treatment for insomnia because long term benzodiazepine use can lead to dependence and worsen insomnia because of your body developing a tolerance to it. READ MORE
Concerta
You can decrease it to 1 starting the next day and continue with 1 for the remaining 6 days then increase back to 2. READ MORE
suffering from akathisia
Propranolol is the medication typically used for akathisia. If this did not help I would consider trying medications targeted at treating extrapyramidal symptoms such as cogentin. Of course, making sure you are off any medications that could be contributing to the side effects or at least minimizing them would be needed. READ MORE
