It is basically akathisia type symptoms. It feels like you start the SSRIs and instead of nothing happening for a month, you feel awful for a while.

50 mg Benadryl smooths it out for a day, I dont get it at all on the antidepressant Remeron. I dont get it from formal stimulants like Provigil or Ritalin, either.

I used to just "force myself thru it" before hypertension. Now with high blood pressure, Im finding I cant do that anymore.
