Clodidine not helping with my tics

I've been taking Clodidine for over a week now and let me tell you it has not helped with my tics at all.... When it's a blood pressure medicine it's also prescribed for people with ADD which I was prescribed with... Over the last week the medicine has made me almost pass out twice at work. It doesn't help my tics at all and sometimes makes them worse. It really spaces me out to the point where whole days are just gone. and it makes me really loopy in general. It's weird cause I take it and then like 20-30 minutes later I can feel it kick in, like a switch being turned off... I plan to tell my doctor about this but my appointment isn't until April... and I kinda just want to see if there's anyone else who takes this and experiences the same things?

I used to take clonidine for anxiety and insomnia, and it eventually stopped working. I think it was only a temporary measure to try to help balance symptoms. It totally could have been contributing to brain fog I’ve had for a few months.
