I may need to take an antidepressant and wondered which ones are compatible with RLS? I recently started taking Clonazepam after switching slowly off of gabapentin and I am having side effects from it that have created this mood change.

Wellbutrin or trazodone. Wellbutrin is slightly better for depression. It doesn't kick in right away so give it some time. There are even anecdotal cases of it helping RLS. Trazodone also helps anxiety and insomnia.
Depression is often caused by neuroinflammation caused by eating too much processed food and drink which also hapens to ba one of the causes of RLS so you can reduce and possibl solve both problems by changing your diet.
