I don't care what doctors say. Do not put up with insomnia as a side effect of antidepressants. Attack the insomnia as agressivly as you would attack the depression itself. THe depression will not get better long term if the insomnia doesn't.
In hindsight the insomnia was the biggest factor that kept me from improving.
I would say trust your gut. Don't let a med interfere with sleep, eating, concentration etc.
The body is a system and a whole. And it needs to be treated as such.
