Took my antidepressant

Ok so I’ve been feeling unmotivated and stressed lately. I’m prescribed perphenazine and amitriptyline. I’ve been off the amitriptyline for a while cause i feel it makes me dumb and kinda has some sexual side effects. Anyways I just took it and I already feel happier, more motivated, and less stressed. I might give it a real go this time. I think I needed something. It maybe helps with restlessness too. Maybe that’s part of my stress. My doctor knows I’ve been off it.

are you sure you feel better or are you just inspired because you took it? that seems awful sudden to feel any better.

Nah i feel meds usually pretty quickly. It’s relaxed me some too. I used to get the invega shot and I was talking real fast as the injection was being done. Literally as the medicine went in my talking seemed to slow with the medicine being introduced. I told the nurse and she was like really that fast. Idk the first time I had an ap injection I had a reaction right away. I’m the same way on buspar. That’s why maybe I abuse it sometimes instead of staying on it. Cause I can take it and within no time I’m relaxing and feeling different. Though the doctors claim it takes time.
