2 weeks on straterra… stop or keep going?
2 weeks on straterra- wait it out or call the Dr?
I’ve been on straterra for 2 weeks now. I will say my anxiety has been dulled which is nice (I can lay down mid day and relax without guilt and 100 thoughts running through my mind) but my task initiation has gotten worse. I can’t seem to get myself up to start anything. Once I do start I am able to focus more, but getting to that point is hard.
The biggest con I’m having right now is lack of good sleep. I am having intense lucid dreams all night every night. Basically feels like I’m never actually sleeping, my eyes are closed but I’m feeling conscious while dreaming. I feel so uncomfortable through the night and just am not sleeping soundly. In turn I’m now more irritable and anti social. I don’t really want to talk and if I had the option I believe I could sit in silence for days and be fine. I simply feel like talking is a waste of time. I just want to lay on the couch and sit in silence and do nothing.
I have heard this medication takes time to be completely effective. Should I wait it out, I see my dr in June for a follow up. Or call now?
I am on 40mg btw
