Hi

I was taking Paroxetine since 2016 but with time i felt i gain weight and became so lazy in the morning even if i slept 7 hours or more. I went to my GP and he recommended me to stop the paroxetine gradually then prescribe me Valdoxan. I started taking Valdoxan from last week, but i feel worse although my sleep quality has improved, i feel low mood in the morning and depressed. Is this feeling natural ?

Should i wait for more one week and then revisit the doctor again to see what going on?

Thank you

hi personally I don`t have experience with either of these but you usually will have some side effects for a few weeks a month or so but if you still feel off after that then go back to the doc.
