Any long term med for sleep not causing tiredness in day? lexapro (escitalopram) tired after waking mouth dry tongue numb am in recovery no longer on antipsychotics
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most sleeper meds: have a hangover, with Trazodone being one of the worst. You describe morning side effects that are well-known from SSRI's and SSNRI's. Are you taking antipsychotic meds? These also have side effects. Who prescribes these? Visit this MD and tell him/her pronto. Recovery? (Not drinking or using drugs?) There are lots of things to try...
