Anyone else taking vortioxetine?

[Lizzbear]

Just looking for anyone else who’s taking vortioxetine to see how they are finding it. I’ve been feeling down and anxious for a good while and thought it might be hormonal. The doc prescribed me vortioxetine as he thinks it’s not hormones and could be related to ADHD. As I’m waiting for an assessment, I’ve been prescribed this as an antidepressant which could help with some if my symptoms.
Anyone else?

No I've heard it's meant to be good for adhd though. The other one good for adhd is escitalopram - I wonder if they are similar. I've been on escitalopram. Does help. Just be mindful of getting stuck in pointless dopamine seeking behaviours (rage scrolling my phone was one of mine, have switched to book reading now!).

Thanks for your reply. I was prescribed 10mg but it seems to affect me too much. Zoning-out a bit and lying about. I’ve dropped to 5mg today as the psychiatrist I saw once, about possible ADHD, said 5 was good. The doctor told me 10mg.
I’ve heard escitalopram is good, just trying to find something that calms my anxious thoughts!

By great, Im always looking for a dopamine rush. I even got hooked on online slots!!!

I meant, by the way
