strattera, trintellix, and insomnia (treating adhd, anxiety and depression)
So i just wanted to kind of update on what happened last night when i decided to take my stratera and trintellix uh at night instead of in the morning i’ve been taking strata for a little over a month now and i typically take it in the morning with breakfast but i noticed that it made me feel a little bit nauseous so i thought that maybe if i took it at night
It would help with that although my my provider recommended that i take it in the morning and she said that this was because a lot of people experience insomnia when they do take a strata at night but not everybody so she said that if i wanted to kind of try it out and see how it worked out for me that i could switch my medication schedule to night time also last
Night was my first time taking trintellix and then yesterday i also got my second dose of the coved pfizer vaccine for covert 19. so it was a little bit of like an eventful day i guess as far as medication and all that and i couldn’t sleep i was up till like five in the morning wide awake and i i can’t say for sure if it was the vaccine or the trintellix or the
Stratera or maybe a combination of everything but i want to say it was probably the straterra because it would make sense since it’s mainly used to treat um an attentive adh uh not inattentive just adhd in general and i have an attentive adhd um so then it would make sense that it would keep you kind of wide awake and alert uh most of the time and that’s exactly
What it did i took it at night for the first time and i just could not go to sleep the entire night so um i think that i’m just gonna go back to taking it in the morning and i’m probably gonna be taking the trintellix and the morning two together with the stratera um i think it just works out better that way especially if it if it helps kind of keep me awake and
Alert which is weird because during the day i don’t really notice that much of a difference in my alertness but when i took it at night last night i definitely noticed it different i had insomnia i was wide awake and alert i couldn’t uh get to sleep um so i guess it really does help with attention and alertness and all that it’s just not as noticeable during the
Day because i’m awake anyway so lesson learned i’ll be taking my medication um in the morning from now on and that’s really all that i wanted to talk about for now
