Got a new antidepressant. Trazodone, starting with 50 mg = one pill.
Feel like reading a book? Forget about it, you’re tired as hell.
Feel like going to sleep? Forget about it, you’ll end up gazing at the ceiling.
Feel like having sex? Forget about it. You can’t come.
Plus migraines, headaches (which are actually mild migraines, I think), I have the need to piss too many times a day. And dizziness, fucking dizziness.
So yeah, professor, I think I am getting well. That’s fucking helping.
Note: I wrote the above out of pure rage and I know that the professor is not to blame. It also may be the ‘hell phase’ of getting used to a medicine. Please do not preach me, I just needed to get this out.

I have no room to preach to you since I do not have personal experience.
I was told by both of my therapists to start a certain medication but I am too afraid to.
The side effects are the reason that I don’t want to start.
I can totally relate. They gave me it to help me sleep, and it knocked me out like no tomorrow. But I can’t imagine having to take it during the day, and at that low dose I’m sure you can’t fall asleep (not trying to preach, just feeling for you…I was on 300 mg so it put me out. Don’t think 50 would). My body got tolerant to it and it no longer made me tired, so I stopped it (the only reason I took it was to help me sleep). Hope the side effects get better soon.
