I’ve noticed that I actually sleep better taking them in the morning and don’t feel that groggy at all. Is there a valueable effect that I’m missing from taking them in the mornings instead of in the evenings?

I’ve only ever really taken them in the morning, I typically risk forgetting to take them in the evenings causing a headache for myself the next day. Beyond that I assumed most people took them in the morning.
Certain meds can make you drowsy and others can make you groggy but restless, the former are better before bed, the latter are better had in the morning.
What changes if you do not take the SSRI at all for a week or so?
This can literally kill people.
SSRI Discontinuation Syndrome is a massive problem that can lead to severe lasting neurological and psychiatric effects. Starting from Tics, motion deficits, sexual dysfunctions to severe and life threatening mental health episodes (extreme episodes of depression and suicidal thoughts, mania, etc.)
Furthermore sudden intake of the old dose can elevate the risk for the acute life-threatening SSRI syndrome.
Guys and Gals, seriously:
Don’t fuck around with SSRIs.
They are absolutely dangerous stuff and messing around with them without experience and training can absolutely ruin the rest of your life.
