Hi, no personal experience, but I have heard people say that it can make you a bit drowsy. No idea if it will help, but could you switch taking it to evening/night time? Sorry I can't help, but didn't want to leave your post unanswered.

HI, I could have written your post! I've been on it too - same dose - since end of Jan and it is working really well for me in terms of my mood BUT I am SO tired all the time - to the extent that I thought I might be pregnant again! I sleep at night but it doesn't seem to make me any less tired. Given the opportunity I will sleep for two or three hours in the day too! No real advice (am going to see my gp about it next week) as I don't know what to do about it myself but just wanted to let you know that you're not alone. Let me know if you find a solution and I'll let you know what my doctor says - I'm wondering if he'll change my dose. Take care x
