I was put on a higher dose of antidepressants today and I took one at 5pm. I went to bed at 11pm and when I closed my eyes to try and sleep I went into a dream like state with flashing images going through my mind. I could move and open my eyes and get comfy but as soon as I closed my eyes again, back into dreams. They are stopping me from getting into an actual sleep. It's now 3am and I still can't get to sleep. Could this be my new antidepressants doing this? I need advice what to do, I have a 7 month old and he'll be up in 3 hours and I've still not slept😭

If you are not happy make a further appointment with your Doctor and explain what is happening to you when you go to bed

Hi Kayley - sorry to read of your situation. Meds for depression/anxiety are a hit and miss affair. I t takes time for the body to adjust and process. Try giving the meds a chance. If things are not much better talk to your doctor. Try not to get upset about it, things may settle yet. Also, as Ian73569 has suggested, try taking the meds at a different time of day, but every day at the same time. Best of luck to you

Are you taking anything else besides the prescirbed drug? Any herbal remedies? Could it be a reaction to something else you are taking? just thought I'd ask in case it was.
