That actually makes perfect sense. Those side effects that make me feel dazed and loopy are some of the scariest for me, but at the same time, those have also been some of the most effective medications. There were some that made me feel too out of it, and I had to try something else, but when I could tolerate those feelings, and finally "came to," I usually felt great.
