Are Nightmares A Symptom Of Anti-depressant Discontinuation?
Hi, I'm a 25 year old female currently taking an anti-depressant and I find that if i miss a day on the odd occasion I will suffer intense dreams that night. I've found that the following morning after these dreams I tend to feel extremely dizzy and heavy headed. Could these 'nightmares' and dizziness be directly related to my medication? This is the second anti-depressant I've been prescribed and both have caused similar effects. Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
Nightmares is not always be the sign of depression, and in your case this is not the nightmare but this is actually sign of depression, if you really want to come out of this then try some exercise, relaxation therapy, yoga, meditation, be positive, bring back your confidence, trust yourself, have a good sleep, then everything would be fine, take care, have a nice day.
