Is near any SSRI antidepressant that does not end in insomnia?

no, the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssris: celexa, lexapro, prozac, luvox, paxil, and zoloft) all impose about alike percentage of insomnia. studies show that 10-20% of patients on ssris will experience insomnia however these rates may decrease near continued use. there are also selective serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (ssnri) that include cymbalta and effexor. cymbalta have about like percentage of insomnia as ssris, however effexor shows about a 3% incidence of insomnia so from the perspective of experiencing insomnia, effexor would be one of the best antidepressants however dozens of other side effects are possible beside all of these meds so a discussion beside your physician is essential before decide on which antidepressant, if any, is best for you. hope this helped.
I don't know if it's an 'SSRI' antidepressant, but my girlfriend be on Effexor and she slept like a tot for 8-12 hours a day. In certainty, she was sleeping TOO much.
