Which SSRI is least likely to make me nauseous?
Hi, so after a dozen horrible months full of setbacks and nauseousness pretty much 24/7 (due to anxiety) I'm looking to get into ssri's again.
Which one is most likely to NOT give me nausea as side effect? I don't really mind headaches, or dizzines or anything beside the nausea.
My first ssri was lexapro drops (cipralex in EU), which gave me bit of headache, but could have been caused by my stiff neck as it sometimes does, then i've tried zoloft with basically no sideeffects. And for the next 8 months it was wonderfull. Loads of CBT a exposure therapy, i felt like recovered, back in the real life full of happiness. Until the zombie effect came and for the next 6 months, i was slowly drifting back to full on emetophobia mode.
Next on was Trintellix / Vortioxetine (Brintellix in EU), which made me SUPER nauseous, like it was so bad i was 3 days in bed waiting for the vommiting to come, horrible experience. So right after the 3 days period i went on Mirtazapine (Mirzaten), 30mg. It's been 2.5 months and i just dont feel any ease of my anxiety. Only thing it makes me eat more and fell asleep in few minutes. Making little to no exposure progress and having troubles with day to day life constantly.
Should i try lexapro again? Or is there any "safer" alternative? I'm really trying hard to push through the cbt and exposures, but i find it pretty much impossible in this state.
Thanks for help 🫶
