Talk to your doc: This is a specific question about you and can most safely be answered by someone who knows all or your medical and psychiatric history. Talk to your prescriber about your concerns.

Other treatement/med: First of all, you cannot treat these disorders 100%, especially BDD, without Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which you do not mention you are undergoing. Secondly, there are a handful of other antidepressants you can try to see if you get a better response without the side effects that bother you.You need to have an open discussion with your doctor about other medication options because they do exist
