hi Doc. I am suffering with RLS from last 5 years and from last few days with Restless Body Syndrome . few days before I consulted with Physchiatrist regarding depression and sleep less night problem and wrote Zoltafreshand Nexito ls. I can now sleep now but started to suffer with Restless Body Syndrome. and still suffering with depression. I dont want to talk to anyone. I want to live alone and sometimes thought of sucide comes in my mind. I also sometimes get so depressed that I want to leave everything and to go to some holyplace without carrying anything...pls suggest.

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query. I understand that you are going through a difficult time. Anti-depressants usually take a few weeks to bring out their full therapeutic effect. In the initial few days, sometimes, side effects may be more prominent that the benefits. Most side effects are temporary and self-limiting. So, please be patient till your medication takes full effect. If your RLS is severe, then you can report this to your psychiatrist and discuss other treatment options. Wish you all the best. - Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar Consultant Psychiatrist
