Question:

hi andy, its worth getting it checked out – they usually say you should be monitored closely if taking an ssri if you get manic…. i havent come across this myself but i know ssri’s can cause sleep disturbances, usually difficulty sleeping… one question – when do you take the Zispin? if you’re taking it at night, maybe try taking it in the morning – i was told to take my ssri (zoloft) in the morning because it tends to be stimulant and can cause difficulty sleeping. i found myself having very surreal dreams while taking valproate – but thats a mood stabiliser so it functions in a different way. best to get it checked by your pdoc. good luck m > NEW TO THE GROUP..Zispin has been the first anti-depressant (of > many)to have had more positive than negative effects on me.
