Vivid Dreams on Increased Medication Dosage

ive been on 40mg for awhile, then stopped for a week or two and i had to slowly go up, i took ten mg then 20 then the next 30 and finally im taking 40, and since i went up on 40 ive been having very vivid dreams, like they feel so real, and i can remember them when i wake up and i have never been able to do that, does anybody else experience this

When I went up on my Lexapro I was having very vivid dreams. Sometimes I still go but not as bad as before 💕

I hope this happens to me, I haven't been able to remember my dreams in years! But it doesn't seem to be too bad! It's a normal side effect! But if it's gets too bad obviously check with a doctor just to be safe

I wasn't able to remember my dreams for a long time before starting my prozac/fluoxitine. So I think it's normal?

Not personally, if they become life altering or bothersome I would talk to your doctor. Being on medication seems to alter a lot of peoples dreams :)
