Advice & Tips
It took several months for me to see a long term change in my depression and thoughts about death. I tried adding another medication for anxiety that I had in the initial phases, but it made me feel too sleepy. Knowing the anxiety stemmed from the meds helped me understand why I was getting anxious so it did not go out of control and eventually this side effect has subsided.
