It is completely understandable to feel frustrated, but please do not worry. The medication you are takinga combination of escitalopram and clonazepamtypically takes two to six weeks to show its full antidepressant effects. Additionally, temporary insomnia can sometimes occur when starting this therapy or as a symptom of depression itself. Please do not stop taking your medication abruptly, as this can cause withdrawal symptoms. Instead, consult your prescribing doctor. They can safely adjust your dosage, change the timing of your dose to help you sleep better, or discuss alternative treatments to ensure you get the relief you need.
