MiaB Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Yes, it can really bomb you, and I found that while I did get more used to it, that effect never went away completely. It sounds obvious, but have you tried shifting your bedtime to earlier if possible? What dose are you on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helloheartbreak Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 you can try taking it earlier, that's the only thing that helped at all for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ophelia Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 You should try taking the med earlier as well as going to sleep earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiaB Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 I'm not surprised you're being knocked out like this if you're taking 400mg. Definitely re-arrange your bedtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
