    Fingers crossed it works for you Elmtree, I’ve found it to be a great sleep aid in the past. Unfortunately I have been getting a bit anxious taking it the last several times but did use some to get back to sleep last night which was helpful. I used to use a THC oil for sleep in conjunction with the SSRI and it knocked me right out. Thanks for taking the time to reply to me, really kind of you.

    Hi Elmtree, I went off the meds because I was on a low dose (5mg) and wasn’t confident I still needed them. Also, family planning. Turns out I do, I think there’s just more stress in my life than I acknowledged and it became much more clear when I went off the pills that I had been holding it together with their help. At the end of the day I need to make some lifestyle changes with work life balance and try to go off them gradually again in the future. Chee, I take these pills in the morning, not to sleep; though when I have been on them previously I never had any sleeping difficulties. My doctor wanted to give me low dose seroquel to get through this period but on researching it I’m not comfortable with that and don’t want to become dependent on sleeping medications. It’s a good point for sure, regardless of whether it’s a natural remedy or a pharmaceutical.
