First day on prescribed serteraline, and my social anxiety and general anxiety have decreased. My executive function is improved and I have more focus. And my hypersensitivity towards loud noise and light has decreased But this feeling is so strange because on my arms and around my ears, the more things touch any skin area, the more they get sore. As if they super sensitive now. And it’s so hard to breathe. And my head hurts. As if I’m having a headache but it’s not hot. I’m constantly sleepy and I don’t know if this is burnt out. I’m scared that I won’t be able to live a normal life. (I do acknowledge that I might be more privileged to have these things, but please keep rants minimal ) And I’m so jittery and my hands are shaking like someone with Parkinson’s

      It also made me super sleepy all the time, I'm not a nap person but I would absolutely have to take naps during the day and would be yawning constantly at work I brought it up to my psychiatrist and she prescribed me Wellbutrin for energy, maybe you could ask your psychiatrist or doctor about getting something for energy alongside it? I take it right after breakfast along with B12 gummies and it's made a huge difference and I'm no longer taking mid day naps or passing out at 9 pm

      I'm about to start the same treatment and have heard that the meds make you super tired. The other symptoms I'm not sure of. My brother is also on the same meds and feels a lot better. When did you start taking them?
