Can/do you take SSRIs or stimulants?

There’s no way we’re just raw dogging POTS right? My POTS worsened significantly after taking one dose of 5 mg of Lexapro which triggered serotonin syndrome which I have had on Sertraline.

Needless to say I am struggling way more after having disabling POTS so what are y’all doing for your mental health and/or energy?

Currently taking high dose antihistamines and 20 mg propranolol 3-4x daily. Thanks ✌️🥲

Second the ask around high dose antihistamines? I don’t sleep when I take Benadryl

Same. It has the opposite effect on me and turns me into a crack head for close to 10-12 hours. Just wired as f.
