Day 4 on 150 MG XL

For starters, I was prescribed this last Thursday for depression and I also have ADHD. I don’t take any other medication. I’m sober and healthy besides having deep general anxiety from a breakup losing my job, not finding work and being in debt. It’s my fourth day on this medication and I can’t say it’s been good. I take it immediately in the morning right after waking up and I get the typical symptoms. Some energy, increase of libido, racing thoughts and anxiety. I’ve also had an increase of depression and suicidal thoughts. One thing I’ve noticed is that if I take my medicine at 7 AM around 7 PM I’ll feel completely fine as in. I don’t have any medication in me. I’ve looked up the half-life of this medication and supposedly it lasts for more than 24 hours. I’m going to be talking to my doctor tomorrow if I should stop taking it but really it’s only been five days and I’m wondering if I should continue. Anyone else have experiences like this or am I the only one?
