"started taking trintellix about a month ago, used to take 10mg in the morning but found it made me sleepy and dozy (especially when driving) so switched to taking it before i went to bed. at first found it helped me sleep better, but now wake up sweating and get bad headaches a few times a night.   i also found suicidal thoughts increased and i actually started to feel more depressed than before i started taking it. it did make me initially feel better and more able to cope, but as time goes on i&#039;m actually degrading back to my pre-med self. doctor is no real help , i can&#039;t get to see him for another 7 weeks as he has a big patient load. thinking about reducing the dose to 5mg a 24 hour period to see if i improve. i  hope i do - i can&#039;t go on like this"
