> Franz I would take the full l0mg if not already on luvox 50mg for many years. Afraid of serotonin syndrome. I do take vitamins. You feel better without them? Intense sun in a warm climate? That surely would help. Phillipa
I did not take the vitamins these days because they have B6 and I thought they can augment serotonin but generally I feel better on them, Bs are a bit stimulant.
I believe going out and talking with people, not staying at home, is very important for not feeling lethargic.
Anyway, at the end of a good day I had a terrible nightmare. Maybe dividing the dose in 5 mg morning and 5 mg evening does not work and the last dose increased dreams. :(
Are you switching from Luvox to escitalopram Phillipa?. It is strange for me that you take 2 SSRIs. I heard that escitalopram can be combined with bupropion but never heard of two SSRIs but these drugs are not pure SSRIs except for esctalopram it seems so it can make sense.
