I am back on Lexapro due to complications with getting my Sertraline and it’s making me feel tired.
Maybe I am taking too much?
On top of that, there is the Guanfacine which I take at night, but that affects me into the morning.
What should I do? I feel that it’s affecting my executive functioning and I need that. I take Abilify as well. Does that make me feel tired all the time and give me brain fog? I take Vyvanse too.
I need to pinpoint why I am so tired all the time…
Exercise, literally:

I have been doing that recently! But I want to make sure I don’t have antidepressants hurting me.
Oh. What I meant was actually replacing drugs entirely with exercise, social connection, and healthy nutrition & sleep.
I’m not doing that yet. I prefer my pills.
Tapering off should be gradual anyway, but the evidence points to this being the healthiest possible setup is all that I mean (barring an uncommon disability of some sort, I suppose).
Yes, I will taper off, but I still need my ADHD meds.
